   Was George du Maurier a cartoonist?

   • Instead, the accolade arguably goes to a man who was principally known, not as a novelist at all, but as a cartoonist. (I say ‘arguably’ because reliable sales figures for nineteenth-century books are not always easy to find.) The cartoonist’s name was George du Maurier and the novel is Trilby (1894).

   Is Trilby a Jewish novel?

   Was Trilby a Victorian novel?

   • In time, even when the novel was largely forgotten, its title would be immortalised in the name of a hat. Although it was published in the 1890s and so was technically a Victorian novel, Trilby was, in many ways, the start of a peculiarly modern craze. Not just for novel tie-ins – that in itself was nothing new.
