Exegesis : An Examination of Australian Gothic Crime Fiction and the Novella 'The Candidate', Jasmine Davies , single work criticism
'A critical study of a selection of Australian literary works that exhibit the characteristics of both Gothic and crime genres. Through an analysis of these creative works, this study argues that the interlacing of Gothic traditions with crime writing conventions has been a noteworthy practice in Australian fiction during both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and these literary tropes are interwoven in the writing of 'The Candidate', a Gothic crime novella.'
