Sexuality and supernatural in Victorian and Edwardian Literature, a short look at the works of Saki, E.F. Benson and M.R. James
About this Event

With Christmas fast approaching, we follow the tradition of Montague James and share ghost stories. Victorian and Edwardian supernatural tales (chiefly those of Saki, James and Benson) become a scrying glass in which to find the ghosts that plagued the authors and wider polite society in general.
