Reviews
"In examining Washington Irving, George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Edgar Allan Poe, Garcha sees the sketch, no longer dismissed in favor of the novel, as providing a warrant for the formal fragmentation of Walter Pater and tacitly for modernism and poststructuralism. Garcha's methodological acuteness is a sign that Victorian studies is waking from its empirico-historicist slumber and moving into a more intellectually confident mode. Summing Up: Recommended." -N.

Synopsis
In this unusual study of a previously neglected literary form, Amanpal Garcha shows how the literary sketch influenced the careers of William Thackeray, Charles Dickens and Elizabeth Gaskell, transformed the marketplace for fiction, and led to the development of some of the Victorian novel's key formal and ideological elements., When William Thackeray, Charles Dickens and Elizabeth Gaskell began their writing careers in the 1830s, they chose to write literary sketches, adopting a popular short form that emphasized description and essayistic analysis rather than storytelling. In this unusual study of a previously neglected literary form, Amanpal Garcha shows how the literary sketch influenced these authors' careers, transformed the marketplace for fiction and led to the development of some of the Victorian novel's key formal and ideological elements.
