Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
In 'Dream Women', Wilkie Collins delves into the complex interplay between dreams and reality, weaving a rich narrative that blurs the boundaries of consciousness. The novella reflects Collins's characteristic blend of Gothic elements and psychological insight, encapsulating the Victorian fascination with the subconscious and the mysterious feminine archetype. Through vivid descriptions and intricate characterizations, he presents a world where women embody both enchantment and danger, challenging the societal norms of his time. This work contributes to the broader literary movement of sensation fiction, illuminating the anxieties surrounding gender and identity in the Victorian era. William Wilkie Collins, often regarded as one of the pioneers of detective fiction, drew upon his personal experiences and the social milieu of Victorian London in crafting his narratives. His close relationships with strong women and his own struggles with the conventions of male authorship inform the themes explored in 'Dream Women'. Collins's unique position as both a contemporary of Charles Dickens and an innovator of the mystery genre provides a rich context for understanding his exploration of female archetypes and dreams. Readers interested in Victorian literature, psychological narratives, and the examination of gender roles will find 'Dream Women' to be an essential addition to their literary exploration. Collins's mastery of suspense and character development makes this novella a compelling study of the dualities of female existence and the haunting nature of dreams.
Giới thiệu tác giả
William Wilkie Collins (1824–1889) was a pioneering English novelist, playwright, and short story writer. He is best known for his work in the genre that we might today call 'sensation fiction,' exemplified by his famous novels 'The Woman in White' (1860) and 'The Moonstone' (1868), which is often considered the first detective novel in the English language. Collins's writing style is characterized by tension and suspense, intricate plotting, and legal and psychological intrigue. His works often challenge the social norms of his time, particularly concerning the institution of marriage and the plight of women in Victorian society. 'Dream Women,' although not as well-known as his novels, is a testament to Collins's fascination with the supernatural and the impact of dreams on the human psyche. Spanning novels, stories, and plays, his extensive oeuvre includes other notable works such as 'No Name' (1862) and 'Armadale' (1866). Collins was an intimate friend of Charles Dickens and collaborated with him. He never married but led a life that, like his novels, did not conform to the Victorian ideals of respectability, which further enriched the depth and complexity of his literary output. His contributions to literature extended beyond his own works; as an influence on later writers, Collins's innovations in the suspense and crime genres set the stage for modern mystery and detective fiction.
