Mid-Century Gothic. The Uncanny Objects of Modernity in British Literature and Culture After the Second World War, Paperback/Lisa Mullen

Mid-Century Gothic offers a fresh perspective on the cultural moment that followed World War II, and discovers a deep sense of unease mingling with optimism about the future. By reassessing the novels, films, visual culture and technologies of the period, the book argues that gothicism itself was redefined by the upstart objects of modernity. -- .
