GOTHIC STORIES WITHIN STORIES
Frame Narratives and Realism in the Genre,
1790-1900

Clayton Carlyle Tarr

9781476667485 Paperback $39.95

Frame narratives - stories within stories - are featured
in nearly every canonical Gothic novel. Sometimes
dismissed as a shopworn convention of the genre,
frame narratives in fact function as a dynamic basis for
imaginative variation and are vital to evaluating the
diverse Gothic tradition. The juxtaposition between the
everyday “frame world” of the story and the disturbing
embedded narrative allows the monstrous to escape
textual confines, forcing the reader to experience the
reassurance of the ordinary alongside the horror of the
uncanny.
