Set in England during the period of the French Revolution, The Wanderer chronicles the ordeals of an ́emigr ́ee's escape from France and the Terror and her attempts to earn a living while guarding her own secrets. Tracing the heroine's progress through a cross-section of English working life, this novel covers various social issues--from racism, to feminism--in its critique of the English middle class.
The Wanderer opens with a group of people fleeing the Terror. Among them is the protagonist, who refuses to identify herself. No one can place her socially-even her nationality and race are in doubt. As Burney scholar Margaret Doody explains, "the heroine thus arrives as a nameless Everywoman: both black and white, both Eastern and Western, both high and low, both English and French." She asks for help from the group, but because she knows no one, she is refused.
This study examines the presentation of suicide within the genre of the eighteenth-century novel. Referencing several key writers of the period, McGuire demonstrates that their work inscribes a nationalist imperative to frame suicide as self-sacrifice.
