Cavell provides close readings of four melodramas he finds definitive of the genre: \"Letter from an Unknown Woman\", \"Gaslight\", \"Now Voyager\", and \"Stella Dallas\".","brand":"The University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54218404397400,"sku":"9780226098142","price":92.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/contesting-tears-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
