Thomas Burke's Dark Chinoiserie is written by Anne Veronica Witchard and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0754658643 (ISBN 10) and 9780754658641 (ISBN 13).
Focusing on Thomas Burke's bestselling collection of short stories, Limehouse Nights (1916), Anne Witchard's interdisciplinary book contextualises the burgeoning cult of Chinatown in turn-of-the-century London. Witchard shows that Burke's immensely popular Chinatown stories destabilize social orthodoxies in highly complex ways, forcing us to rethink his influence on both sides of the Atlantic. She shows that China and chinoiserie served as mirrors that reveal the disquietudes of western art and culture.
