Writing Black Beauty: Anna Sewell, the Creation of a Novel, and the Story of Animal Rights - Celia Brayfield - Bog

Bag om Writing Black Beauty: Anna Sewell, the Creation of a Novel, and the Story of Animal Rights

"Black Beauty is now recognised as the first anthropomorphic novel, and it had an extraordinary emotional impact on readers of all ages. After modest success in Britain, it was taken up by a charismatic American, George Thorndike Angell, a campaigner against animal cruelty who made it one of the bestselling novels of all time. Using newly discovered archive material, Celia Brayfield shows Anna Sewell developing the extraordinary resilience to overcome her disability, rouse the conscience of Victorian Britain and make her mark upon the world." --
