Today, we have 20th century author Norah Lofts writing about 18th century Suffolk, England. In a previous post I compared Harwood’s depiction of 19th century female sensibilities with those of Wilkie Collins. I think of John Harwood reaching from the 21st century back to 19th century with his gothic novel The Séance.
I think of Nathaniel Hawthorne, a 19th century writer who focused on 17th century New England in The Scarlet Letter.
Hey, what can I say? I did it myself with Moonlight Dancer. I find it’s interesting to read books by novelists who reach back in time to write about a former era. I read this novel as part of a discussion led by Werner at the Goodreads Supernatural Group.
