    Dickens' story The Signalman tantalises as it slips away from the reader's attempted grasp at 'truth'. For where is 'truth' in this story? Should we believe the fears of the lonely, isolated signalman who believes he is being haunted by a figure of nemesis foretellling death and destruction? Or sh ...

Very clever and well thought out but altogether a bit too dry and without feeling. I found that the author's great manipulation of language and thorough development of plot, char ...
