Although moral earnestness has long been considered characteristic of the Victorians, Kucich maintains that English fiction in the nineteenth century was as interested in lies as in honesty. In this important book, Kucich explores the fascination with lying in novels by Anthony Trollope, Wilkie Collins, Elizabeth Gaskell, Ellen Wood, Thomas Hardy, and Sarah Grand.
John Kucich is Professor of English at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. His previous books include Repression in Victorian Fiction: Charlotte Bronte, George Eliot, and Charles Dickens.
