Fiction
The Dark Sister
Rebecca Goldstein
With a new afterword
Library of American Fiction
"Successful blend of metaphysical suspense and
satirical comment."Chicago TribuneIf you like the fiction of Henry James, the psychology of his brother William and have a taste for Gothic mysteries you will enjoy The Dark Sister. The novel is a curious mixture of the Victorian repressiveness about sex, intricate stories within stories, and Jewish humor.
"A wicked satire on feminist fiction."The New York Times
"Immensely ambitious. . . . Teems with ideas and provocative suggestions."The Washington Post
"Goldstein has cleverly constructed a highly imaginative tale."
