"...CATHERINE...was conceived as a corrective satire on a fashionable genre. It did not shake off the shadow of the Newgate novels it was intended to parody...; but that was not Thackeray's intention. On the contrary, he considered his story a failure because he had not made his retelling of a sordid eighteenth-century murder sordid enough."Thackeray, William Makepeace is the author of 'Catherine A Story' with ISBN 9781421811987 and ISBN 1421811987.
