Mary E. Braddon - Lady Audley's Secret

[romanticdress]

In my study of the older "classic" Gothics, I have discovered a wonderful treat. Unlike the "originals", which were a little difficult sometimes to read, I had no trouble with "Lady Audley's Secret", though there were literary references that I was unfamiliar with.

Thank you for interesting review! I have never read this lesser-known (?) Gothic.
