About this product
Product Information
This book is the first extensive study of seventeen works of short fiction by one of Scotland's most influential writers of all time. It examines the author's only collection of short stories, Chronicles of the Canongate , periodical and gift-book pieces, and interpolated tales that appeared in the novels. Through careful readings of, amongst others, the Highland stories ('The Highland Widow' and 'The Two Drovers'), his Indian novella ( The Surgeon's Daughter ), Gothic keepsakes ('My Aunt Margaret's Mirror' and 'The Tapestried Chamber'), and his Calabrian tale Bizarro , this book offers new insights into the production and consumption of short stories, novellas, tales, sketches and other forms of fiction in the early nineteenth century and beyond.

Reviews
Scott's Shorter Fiction has been seriously neglected. This is the first book-length study to explore its significance and development. By situating Scott's work in the shorter form in the context of a much wider engagement with the short story in Scotland, Cook also widens our understanding of this important genre and its origins. This study is particularly welcomed as we celebrate Scott 250 and re-assess our understanding of Scott and his legacies in so many different ways.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
