Böcker av Carol Margaret Davison

Bodysnatcher provides new insight into the infamous story of Burke and Hare, who committed murders that shook 19th century Edinburgh. Told from the points of view of Burke and his partner Nelly, the darkly Gothic narrative exposes the psyche of a killer while also giving voice to the woman who endured his horrors.

Anti-Semitism and British Gothic Literature examines the Gothic's engagement with the Jewish Question and British national identity over the course of a century. What emerges is the elucidation of an anti-Semitic 'spectropoetics' that convey how the spectres of Jewish difference and Jewish assimilation haunt British literature.
