Complete Works of Wilkie Collins by Delphi Classics
Requirements: .ePUB Reader, 18.9 MB
Overview: A close friend of Charles Dickens’ from their meeting in March 1851 until Dickens’ death in June 1870, William "Wilkie" Collins was one of the best known, best loved, and, for a time, best paid of Victorian fiction writers. But after his death, his reputation declined as Dickens’ bloomed. Now, Collins is being given more critical and popular attention than he has received for fifty years. Most of his books are in print, and all are now in e-text. He is studied widely; new film, television, and radio versions of some of his books have been made; and all of his letters have been published. However, there is still much to be discovered about this superstar of Victorian fiction. (Version 4)
