Carey, however, more than withstands the test of time, alluding to the formality of Victorian prose without ever bending over backward to duplicate it. In addition, his eye for physical detail--and the ways in which such details open small or large windows onto character--is on par with that of Dickens. Here, for example, he pins down both the body and soul of a household servant: "Miss Mott was lean and sinewy and there was nowhere much for such a violent shiver to hide itself. Consequently it went right up her spine and disappeared inside her little white cap and then, just when it seemed lost, it came out the other side and pulled up the ends of her thin mouth in a grimace." Throw in a wicked mastery of period slang, a subplot about Victorian mesmerism (of which Dickens was, in fact, a practitioner) and an amazing storytelling gift, and you have a novel which meets and exceeds almost any expectation one might bring to it" - SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR - Pictures available upon request., Faber & Faber, 2001, 4, Washington, DC: Walton Beacham Editions, 1986 1st ed. INSCRIBED on title p. by author. 78pp. grey & purple cloth tall 8vo: near Fine in a near Fine dj in Brodart poly cover [some foxing of cover cloth; else a nice crisp copy; dj = white covers show foxing; else nrF] A long, provocative poem evoking historical images of Charlotte Corday, who stabbed the Jacobin Marat to death and was executed, as well as modern women "who grapple with the tenets of non-violent social revolution."
