The English Gothic novel has recently attracted renewed attention
by modern critics who have argued its importance as a mirror of
late 18th-century discomfort with the political, psychological, and
sexual climate of the times. Elizabeth Napier's work challenges
these views, suggesting that the instability of the form may be
more successfully addressed through a study of generic structure
and its relationship to the designs of the fictional works that
preceded it. The first full-length study of narrative conventions
in the Gothic, The Failure of Gothic examines the disjunctive form
of much Gothic fiction, and its repeated, troubling failure to deal
conclusively with both the ethical and the formal issues it raises.
