"Phyllis Richardson takes readers on a journey through history to discover how authors’ personal experiences of houses and home life helped to shape the imaginative dwellings that have become icons of English literature...Using historic sources, authors’ biographies, letters and published news accounts, as well as the novels themselves, The House of Fiction presents some of the most influential houses in Britain through the stories they inspired, while offering candid glimpses of the writers who brought them to life"--
