elcinwyo 's review for:

The Mysteries of Udolpho by Ann Radcliffe
4.0

The premier Gothic novel. It took me forever to read and I felt the heroine was a bit stupid. Some parts just plodded along for me while others had a rapid pace. It's easy to see where horror came from in this novel and I'm quite sure it gave many a priveledged class lady a thrill.
