All of the tales feature sinister settings such as castles and<br>ancient houses, along with protagonists who are haunted by the tyranny of the past and physically or else spiritually incarcerated by their circumstances. Designed to provide an overview of the genre, and offering a balance of classic and more unusual stories, this is a book that will appeal to both<br>the newcomer and dedicated collector of Gothic fiction. 190477 1 11 1999 Twelve Gothic Tales (Oxford Twelves) total:6|4:4|3:2| 6 22 9 0 0 0 false false Fri Oct 02 22:53:28 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 02 22:53:28 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Tue Apr 28 19:22:47 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 28 19:22:47 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Apr 21 14:38:19 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 21 14:38:19 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Mar 25 20:59:12 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 25 20:59:12 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Feb 15 09:50:19 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 15 09:50:19 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Feb 15 08:37:24 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 15 08:37:24 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jul 09 09:02:35 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 09 09:02:50 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Apr 25 15:21:47 -0700 2008 Fri Apr 25 15:21:47 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sat Apr 12 11:24:24 -0700 2008 Sat Apr 12 11:24:24 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=196931
