Dearly Departed

'Kelly Hager's wonderful new book questions English novel theory, which since Ian Watt has focused upon the courtship plot. Hager suggests another equally powerful framing of the English novel: failed-marriage plots or novels of "marital discontents".

Dickens and the Rise of Divorce is an important work that will change our understanding of Dickens and the family.'   Review of English Studies  '... scholars of both Victorian fiction and the history of marriage will profit from consulting Dickens and the Rise of Divorce.
