' Lady Audley's Secret |
|
|
| Lady Audley's Secret epitomized the scandalous and irresistible "sensation" fiction of the period and established Braddon as the doyenne of the genre. Lady Audley, a beautiful woman with a mysterious past, serves as a commentary on the rise of the middle class and the consumer culture, and her fate reflects the public's fascination with psychological theories about the nature of identity and the definition of madness. |
|
|
| It tells the story of Lady Audley who is young, beautiful, wicked, and manipulative. In spite of her revengeful schemes and criminal acts, the author creates sympathy for the heroine as she is a victim of social injustice. Set in the Victorian period, it keeps the reader guessing till the end with its surprising twits. It is one of the most widely read novels even today. |
