The Governess And Other Stories
$16.46
Eleanor Wren was an elusive writer of Gothic fiction. As a girl, she experienced a tragedy that led to the writing and publishing of The Governess, her first and only novel. Its graphic depiction of love and violence made her a sensation throughout England, and she fled the fame with haste. Wren published a series of short stories over the course of her life, detailing various supernatural encounters and heart-wrenching losses, but even that infrequent attention became too much. B. P. Morrison's introduction discusses the isolation of Eleanor Wren, as well as her almost deliberate quest for unhappiness. Included in this edition are two previously unpublished short stories, written for the sake of their creator, as well as a chronology. "It's such an account, one has a hard time believing it was all true." - The Wickhamshire Post
