Each night Elyse would fall asleep exhausted and forlorn, wishing for the mom she hadn’t seen since she was born. One evening when the crowds were gone and she was tethered for the night, Elyse noticed for the first time that her ropes were rather tight.

They clearly saw it as a stage in mapping an episode in British art - the rise of the Sturm und Drang, hand-in-hand with a new age of Gothic sensibility in literature - that has, until now, been relatively uncharted. What they almost entirely failed to perceive was its relevance to recent, and even current, developments in British and American art.
