Description

This Routledge academic text examines how Victorian writers portrayed the suburban landscape in mid- to late-nineteenth century British literature, creating a distinctive literary sub-genre focused on controlling outsiders and enforcing middle-class values. Whelan analyses the tension between the suburban ideal and its often-disappointing realities, tracing how this idealised vision persisted despite widespread evidence of its failure to materialise. Drawing on both primary and secondary sources, the book explores representations of suburban life as a reflection of Victorian society's anxieties about class boundaries, cultural hierarchies, and social order. Part of the Routledge Studies in Nineteenth Century Literature series, this work offers scholars and students a rigorous examination of how literature both shaped and reflected Victorian attitudes towards suburban living and the social aspirations it represented.
