Dead Secret UNABRIDGED WILKIE COLLINS Read by Nicholas Boulton
The COMPLETE CLASSICS Dead Secret UNABRIDGED WILKIE COLLINS Read by Nicholas Boulton A masterful blend of Gothic drama and romance, Wilkie Collins’s mystery novel is an exploration of illegitimacy and inheritance. Set in Cornwall, the plot foreshadows The Woman in White with its themes of doubtful identity and deception, and involves a broad array of characters. The ‘secret’ of the book’s title is the true parentage of the book’s heroine, Rosamond Treverton, which has been written down and kept in an unused room at Porthgenna Tower. This is where, 20 years later, much of the novel’s action is set. Nicholas Boulton graduated from The Guildhall School of Music and Drama, winning the BBC Carleton Hobbs Award for Radio. He has since featured in countless BBC radio dramas, narrated a plethora of award- winning audiobooks, and died a thousand deaths in various video games. Film, TV and theatre appearances include Shakespeare in Love, Total running time: 13:20:40 Game of Thrones and Wolf Hall (RSC).

Wilkie Collins, a Biography
CHAPT ER TEN cc No Name " The next twelve months or so were among the happiest of Wilkie Collins' life. At the age of 36 he was no longer, as many had regarded him, just one of ' Mr. Dickens' young men,' but a celebrity in his own right. He had learned to enjoy success without losing his balance. His domestic life was happy and seemed relatively stable, if unconventional. He had no monetary cares and for a brief period his health was better than for some time past. He lived, as he liked to do, a full social life, and invitations to public functions, musi- cal evenings and private dinner parties showered upon him. In the winter of I860 we find him staying for the first time with those literary lion-hunters, the Monckton Milnes, at Fryston, in Yorkshire. He also came into touch with George Eliot and G. H. Lewes, and frequently attended their musical ' Saturday afternoons ' at their house near Regent's Park. The musical evening—or afternoon—was an established feature of social life in the London of the Sixties, and Wilkie was known to be a keen music-lover. His understanding of the subject was not particularly profound and we have Dickens' word, for what it is worth, that he was virtually tone-deaf, but at least it is to his credit that his favourite composer was Mozart. If music appears in one of his novels, it is almost sure to be Mozart. Laura Fairlie and Walter Hartwright play Mozart piano-duets; Uncle Joseph's— musical box plays—rather too often, one must confess ' Batti, batti,' the air from Don Giovanni; the blind Lucilla in Poor Miss 135 : 136 WILKIE COLLINS Finch plays a Mozart sonata on the piano.

Disabilities and Gender in the Novels of Wilkie Collins
Disabilities and Gender in the Novels of Wilkie Collins by ELIZABETH L. AGNEW Submitted to the Office of Honors Programs and Academic Scholarships Texas ARM University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for 1998-99 UNIVERSITY UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH FELLOWS PROGRAM April 15, 1999 Approved as to style and content by: Pa A. Parrish, Facul Advisor Department of English Susanna Finnell, Executive Director Honors Programs and Academic Scholarships Fellows Group: Humanities Gender and Disabilities in the Novels of Wilkie Collins Elizabeth L. Agnew, (Dr. Paul A. Parrish) University Undergraduate Fellow, 1998-99, Texas A&M University, Department of English Many Victorian novelists sought to promote the importance of the individual by placing their characters in situations that allowed them to go outside society's pre-established boundaries. In spite of these novelists' intentions, a closer study of their works reveals that the writers who tried to move beyond society's expectations were often inherently trapped within them. My thesis argues that Wilkie Collins's representations of characters with disabilities show that even though Collins intended for disabilities to help characters supercede societyk expectations for them, thc Victorian context in which he was writing prevented him from completely achieving his goals. In particular, my thesis examines the ways in which Victorian attitudes toward gender influenced Co11ins's portrayals of characters with disabilities. Disabilities served to empower Collins's female characters who either physically embodied Victorian ideals of beauty and purity or who were financially independent. In contrast, women who did not fulfill these expectations were hurt by disabilities, as were all of Collins's male characters.
