About the book

Curiosities of Literature by John Sutherland is a literary essay collection for adult readers.

One of our foremost critics tours some of the more arcane byways of literature. How much heavier was Thackeray's brain than Walt Whitman's? Which novels do American soldiers read?

When did cigarettes start making an appearance in English literature? And, while we're about it, who wrote the first Western, is there any link between asthma and literary genius, and what really happened on Dorothea's wedding night in Middlemarch?
