Georgiana Fullerton

-
Publishing all through the 1840s and the 1880s, GF worked in a variety of genres, including poetry, biography, drama, and most notably the novel. While many of her eleven novels adopt tropes from sensation fiction, her work is primarily concerned with questions of religion and faith. She acquired a reputation as one of the foremost Roman Catholic novelists writing in England during the nineteenth century.
