Book Description:

Patrick McGrath is one of Britains foremost contemporary novelists but very little has been written about his work to date. Following his co-edited volume The New Gothic in 1991, he has also been a key figure in the resurgence of interest in the Gothic. This new book offers readings of McGraths fiction informed by recent scholarship and evaluates his creative contribution to the continuation of the Gothic tradition into the twenty-first century.
