More about the book

Exploring the themes of social and psychological entrapment, the book examines how Dickens utilizes Gothic elements to critique the impact of institutions and historical narratives on individuals. It highlights various forms of entrapment, such as imprisonment, legal struggles, and ghostly hauntings, illustrating how these experiences hinder reformist aspirations. The analysis delves into the psychological and sociological dimensions of these Gothic representations, revealing their significance in Dickens's work and their broader implications for understanding societal constraints.
