In response to Mrs. Radcliffe vs. JA - no contest!, written by Carolyn B on November 19, 1997 at 21:29:58

] Some English department runs the Bulwer-Lytton contest for the worst opening sentence to an imaginary novel - maybe there ought to be a Mrs. Radcliffe contest for gothic literary excess.


No, the contest doesn't have a Gothic category, but they should! Check out the Ramble for a posting of the 1996 winners. :-)
