- W4237333991 abstract "Although Patrick McGrath (1950–) was brought up in England, he has spent much of his adult life in North America. He is the author of seven novels and two volumes of short stories. His work initially derived from an impetus to revivify the Gothic by writing in dialogue with its conventions and so make new its enduring concern with transgression and decay, which he sees as key elements in the tradition. The most powerful early influence on McGrath's work was Edgar Allan Poe (see poe, edgar allan ) but he also acknowledges the part played by his own background in his choice of subject matter. His father was for many years medical superintendent at Broad‐moor, Britain's foremost secure psychiatric hospital; as a child McGrath was familiar with tales of transgressive and bizarre behavior. In 1991, he edited with Bradford Morrow a collection of stories by contemporary writers entitled The New Gothic , which, as the editors claimed in their introduction, could be regarded as “strongly manifesting the Gothic sensibility” although they were “no longer shackled by the conventional props of the genre” (1991: xiv). The evolution of McGrath's own writing shows a development from a postmodern and playful engagement with Gothic “props” into an exploration of the darker recesses of the human mind and the effects of trauma on personal and public histories." @default.
