The Woman In White (Illustrated)
FREE
Wilkie Collins’ fifth published novel, The Woman in White caused unprecedented excitement when it appeared in 1859 and has not lost its capacity to thrill. It is arguably the author’s masterpiece and is widely regarded to be among the first mystery novels, as well as one of the first (and finest) in the genre of “sensation novels.”
Collins invented the “cliff-hanger”, and given the 40 or so of them that strategically punctuate his novel, it’s not difficult to see why this Victorian mystery continues to enthrall us. The book famously opens with Walter Hartright’s eerie encounter on a moonlit London road with a mysterious woman dressed head to toe in white. She is in a state of confusion and distress, and when Hartright helps her find her way back to London she warns him against an unnamed “man of rank and title.” Hartright soon learns that she may have escaped from an asylum and finds to his amazement that her story may be connected to that of the woman he secretly loves.
A tale of love, marriage, betrayal and mistrust, the gripping story is unraveled through diaries, first-hand accounts, and different points of view.
