Through close readings of various works, including the Highland stories (The Highland Widow and The Two Drovers), his Indian novella (The Surgeon's Daughter), Gothic keepsakes (My Aunt Margaret's Mirror and The Tapestried Chamber), and his Calabrian tale Bizarro, this book provides fresh insights into the production and consumption of short stories, novellas, tales, sketches, and other forms of fiction in the early nineteenth century and beyond.
