This volume explores the novels and short stories of the popular author Richard Marsh through a range of critical lenses. An exemplary figure of the New Grub Street, Marsh was an important presence within fin-de-siecle literary culture, whose middlebrow genre fiction simultaneously reinforces and challenges the dominant discourses of the period. -- .
