Literary contrasts in Oliphant Collins and Gilbert reviews
The piece weighs Mrs. Oliphant’s character driven plot against Mr. Collins’s intricate but inconsistent man and Wife and Mr. Gilbert’s historical Ferrara tale. It highlights Ben Renton and the seven year will, Anne Silvester and Delamayn schemes, Hester Detheridge’s murder diary, and Gilbert’s distant Duchess Renée portraits.
