Basil / Wilkie Collins ; edited with an introduction and notes by Dorothy Goldman. by Collins, Wilkie, 1824-1889. Oxford University Press, 2008. Call #: FICTION COL Subjects Inheritance and succession -- Fiction.   Young men -- England -- Fiction.   Fathers and sons -- Fiction.   Revenge -- Fiction.   Betrayal -- Fiction.   Adultery -- Fiction.   London (England) -- Social conditions -- 19th century -- Fiction. Series Oxford world's classics (Oxford University Press) ISBN:  9780199536702 (trade pbk.) 0199536708 (trade pbk.) Description:  xxxiii, 282 p. ; 20 cm. Notes:  Originally published in 1852. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references ([xxiii]-xxiv). Summary:  In Basil's secret and unconsummated marriage to Margaret Sherwin, and the consequent horrors of betrayal, insanity, and death, Collins reveals the bustling, commercial London of the first half of the nineteenth century. Collins' treatment of adultery shocked contemporary reviewers, and even today the passionate and lurid atmosphere he created has the power to disturb the modern reader.
