- W2322307926 abstract "dicates what the imagination of a skilled writer can accomplish in transforming shapeless, confused material into an artistic whole. The Dead Alive stands high among the Collins novelettes. Although the characterization is rudimentary and the dead-alive theme is less dramatically utilized than in certain other Collins stories, there is hardly a lull in suspense from beginning to end. The novelette is further notable as Collins' first experiment with an American setting. Even if one disregards such Anglicisms as calling the jailor the governor of the prison and confusing the English penalty, transportation for life, with the American penalty, life imprisonment,15 the experiment was not a conspicuous success. Collins' comments on American ways have little validity, and his portrait of Naomi as a forthright American girl is not convincing. The omission of Sally's attempt to swear a father deprived the novelette of an authentic bit of Americana which Thomas Hardy, for instance, would have eagerly seized. Nevertheless, the relation of The Dead Alive to the Boorn trial makes it an item of interest" @default.
