GREIFENSTEIN....First and foremost...this is an entertaining novel! 427 Pages In Print!
Some would classify this as a horror novel! The story is not weird but is very full of suspense!
This is is a fascinating romance from American novelist F. Marion Crawford...
In "Greifenstein" our author strings together interesting elements into an amazing plot, featuring one of his most daring incidents in any of his books, an astounding, even shocking murder and double suicide. And yet Crawford has you sympathize with the nobles who do the deed . . . only to return the reader back to the main story of the young people in love.
This novel makes for an enjoyable page-turner, and might even make a great movie. By today's standards, Crawford's prose is periphrastic; by the standards of his own day, he was a master of concision; styles change, times change.
If you want a good indication of what an expertly produced popular novel of the 19th century was like, then you could hardly find a better example than "Greifenstein."
And as always, the author's keen eye to social station fleshes out what otherwise might be considered a trivial entertainment. Hardly trivial.
