dark London /[electronic resource] :Sara Wasson. - Basingstoke, Hampshire [England] ;Palgrave Macmillan,2010. - xii, 209 p. :ill.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 172-195) and index.
Introduction: The Urban Gothic of the British Home Front -- Nightmare City: Gothic Fâlnerie and Wartime Spectacle in Henry Green and Roy Fuller -- Carceral City, Cryptic Signs: Wartime Fiction by Anna Kavan andGraham Greene -- Gothic, Mechanized Ghosts: Wartime Industry in Inez Holden, Anne Ridler and Diana Murray Hill -- Elizabeth Bowen's Uncanny Houses -- 'The Rubbish Pile and the Grave':Nation and the Abject in John Piper, Graham Sutherland and Mervyn Peake -- Afterword: The Politics of Lamentation.
This book examines 'home front' literature of the Second World War, arguing that Gothic tropes and forms mark moments of fracture in the national mythologies of wartime home, city and fellowship. These works inthe Gothic mode subvert mythologies of nation that are still influential today. Anna Kavan, Mervyn Peake, Elizabeth Bowen, Roy Fuller, Henry Green and others present counter-stories to the dominant national mythology of British survival and emotional resilience. In the texts of thismonograph, the city grows strange, time distorts, and hallucinatory narrative voices depict a nightmare realm. Doubling, temporal dislocation, narrative disjunction and tropes of haunting gather around shadowy figures on the margin of the nation. This book moves from city streets, to hospitals and prisons, to factories, to homes and finally to morgues.Each location presents a London that is, in the words of Mervyn Peake,"half masonry, half pain.".
