nové vydání klasické anglické četby T. S. Eliot ('Wilkie Collins and Dickens')
Collins's ability
to construct a gripping situation and to create an atmosphere of
mystery and menace is fully evident in the three novellas reprinted
here. All proceed through a series of dramatic scenes to a climax that
in one case at least is literally explosive. The fast-paced Miss or Mrs?
(1871) opens on a yacht, features a remarkably unconventional heroine,
and entails murder attempts, blackmail, clandestine marriage and
commercial fraud. Dramatic and psychologically absorbing, the action of
The Haunted Hotel (1878) takes place in an ancient Venetian palazzo converted
into a modern hotel that houses a grisly secreI. Lastly, set in a beautiful water-mill, The Guilty River
(1886) depicts a group of alienated characters, whose relationships
threaten to erupt in violence and murder. Varied in setting and tone,
these stories demonstrate Collins's plot-making skill at its most
succinct and intricate.
