The crowd sourced encyclopedia's article on the novel, read directly for this entry. Its strength is a well referenced production and content record: publication date, structure, plot and reception. Its limit is that it is not independently peer reviewed, so it is cited here for corroborated production and content detail rather than for scholarly critical judgment, which the Gray article supplies instead.
