AA.VV
A best-seller in its day and a potent influence on Walpole, Poe, andother writers of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Gothic horror, The Mysteries of Udolpho remains one of the most important works in thehistory of European fiction. With its dream-like plot andhallucinatory rendering of its characters' psychological states, TheMysteries of Udolpho is a fascinating challenge to contemporaryreaders.
