Book Synopsis Gender and Ventriloquism in Victorian and Neo-Victorian Fiction by : H. Davies
Book excerpt: Is ventriloquism just for dummies? What is at stake in neo-Victorian fiction's desire to 'talk back' to the nineteenth century? This book explores the sexual politics of dialogues between the nineteenth century and contemporary fiction, offering a new insight into the concept of ventriloquism as a textual and metatextual theme in literature.
