Description: Soft cover, a small crease to tip of bottom corner goes into book first dozen pages, just the tip. Bottom outer pages stained (not inside the book) rest of book is clean crisp and unmarked etc inside and out. In Telling Complexions Mary Ann O’Farrell explores the frequent use of "the blush" in Victorian novels as a sign of characters’ inner emotions and desires. Through lively and textured readings of works by such writers as Jane Austen, Elizabeth Gaskell, Charles Dickens, and Henry James, O’Farrell illuminates literature’s relation to the body and the body’s place in culture. In the process, she plots a trajectory for the nineteenth-century novel’s shift from the practices of manners to the mode of self-consciousness. Publisher: Duke University Press Books, 1997
