Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
In "Jezebel's Daughter," Wilkie Collins intricately weaves a tale of love, betrayal, and the powerful bonds between mothers and daughters, all set against the backdrop of Victorian society's moral constraints. Collins employs his characteristic blend of sensationalism and psychological depth, utilizing a first-person narrative that immerses the reader in the complex emotional landscapes of his characters. The novel confronts themes of gender, societal expectations, and the repercussions of personal choices through the lens of its vivid protagonists, particularly in the figure of the enigmatic and tragic Jezebel, whose life reflects the struggles of women navigating a patriarchal world. Wilkie Collins, a contemporary of Charles Dickens and a pioneer of detective fiction, often drew on his own experiences and observations of Victorian life to explore societal norms and human morality. His enduring fascination with the darker aspects of human nature, coupled with his interest in the plight of women in a repressive society, informs much of the narrative in "Jezebel's Daughter," highlighting the conflicts that arise from personal desire and societal expectation. This compelling novel is recommended for readers interested in Victorian literature, gender studies, and psychological drama. Collins' rich prose and deft characterizations make "Jezebel's Daughter" a significant exploration of the complexities of love and morality, inviting readers to ponder the facets of human relationships and societal constraints.
Giới thiệu tác giả
Wilkie Collins, born William Wilkie Collins on January 8, 1824, in London, England, was an eminent English novelist, playwright, and author of short stories. He is widely recognized as one of the pioneers of the detective fiction genre and for his mastery in crafting suspenseful narratives. The son of painter William Collins, Wilkie was exposed to the arts from a young age and later pursued law, although his passion remained in writing. Collins garnered critical acclaim with works such as 'The Woman in White' (1860) and 'The Moonstone' (1868), which is often cited as the first detective novel in the English language. His unique literary style combines elements of Gothic horror with realistic social commentary and intricate plots. Throughout his career, Collins also touched upon various social issues, including the plights of women and the injustices of Victorian society. His novel 'Jezebel's Daughter' (1880), although lesser-known than his opus, embodies his trademark blend of suspense and social critique. Collins's narrative strategies and character development significantly influenced the development of detective fiction as we know it today. His works continue to be studied and celebrated for their innovation and contemporary relevance, and his contributions to literature remain undisputed. Collins passed away on September 23, 1889, in London, leaving behind a legacy as an integral figure in 19th-century literature.
