Publisher Description

Who smells? After surveying nearly eighty novels written in the 1860s to answer that impolite question, Common Scents explores the implications of such olfactory data in novels by Dickens, Eliot, Meredith, Oliphant, Trollope, and Yonge. In doing so, it offers a new understanding of the self-evident values of high-Victorian culture.
