It is less interested in what happened in the lives of the people described in these biographies, and more concerned with how these stories have been told. It aims to have a conversation with British biographers, particularly Michael Holroyd, Richard Holmes, Hermione Lee and Claire Tomalin, to make their voices heard, to set them talking. It understands biography as an ongoing collaboration, not only between biographers and their subjects, but between biographers and their readers. This is also a study of haunting, in which we haunt the lives of others to help us come to a better understanding of our own. 001378160 650_0 $$aConversation in literature. 001378160 650_0 $$aEnglish prose literature. 001378160 650_0 $$aAuthors, English$$vBiography. 001378160 650_0 $$aBiography as a literary form. 001378160 650_0 $$aLiterature and society$$zEngland. 001378160 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001378160 77608 $$iPrint version :$$z9783319583822 001378160 852__ $$bebk 001378160 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-58383-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001378160 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1378160$$pGLOBAL_SET 001378160 980__ $$aBIB 001378160 980__ $$aEBOOK 001378160 982__ $$aEbook 001378160 983__ $$aOnline 001378160 994__ $$a92$$bISE
