Not Wisely, but Too Well (Paperback, New)

This new edition of a controversial Victorian novel illuminates the text's ideological and aesthetic complexity through appendices related to its publication history, revision, and reception. Edited with an introduction and notes by Tamar Heller. Reproducing the text of its first appearance in volume form, this new edition of Not Wisely, but Too Well illuminates the novel's ideological and aesthetic complexity through appendices related to its publication history, revision, and reception. These appendices include a section containing Jewsbury's reader's report and Broughton and Le Fanu's correspondence with the Bentleys, a list of variants between serial and volume formats of the novel, and a selection of contemporary reviews. Together these materials provide a fascinating case study of the coming to print, and reception, of a controversial Victorian text, while also attesting to the challenges Broughton faced in representing female desire in her early fiction.
