Reconsidering Elizabeth Bowen's Shorter Fiction: Dead Reckoning
focuses on Elizabeth Bowen's representations of violence against
the self and others. Heather Levy examines the complicity of
landscape and the implications of mayhem, murder, and suicide in
The Collected Stories of Elizabeth Bowen (2006) edited by Angus
Wilson and The Bazaar and Other Stories (2008) edited by Alan
Hepburn. It introduces five previously unpublished short story
fragments and two nearly complete stories from The Elizabeth Bowen
Collection at The Harry Ransom Research Center. Levy argues that
Bowen's shorter fiction is a quixotic celebration of moral
transgression, crime without punishment, and suicide without
mourners. Bowen's compassionate response to offenders and violence
anticipated the Perpetrator Trauma movement in the United States.
Her innovations with the freedom of the short story produced an
uncanny narration of violence. This book integrates the entirety of
the scholarship on Bowen's short stories in a clear and original
manner and offers a synthetic and compelling excavation of Bowen's
unpublished short stories.
