HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved,
essential classics. 'The woman who first gives life, light, and
form to our shadowy conceptions of beauty, fills a void in our
spiritual nature that has remained unknown to us till she
appeared.' One of the earliest works of 'detective' fiction with a
narrative woven together from multiple characters, Wilkie Collins
partly based his infamous novel on a real-life eighteenth century
case of abduction and wrongful imprisonment. In 1859, the story
caused a sensation with its readers, hooking their attention with
the ghostly first scene where the mysterious 'Woman in White' Anne
Catherick comes across Walter Hartright. Chilling, suspenseful and
tense in mood, the novel remains as emotive for its readers today
as when it was first published.
