Matthew Sweet re-examines the life and work of the exciting, sensational and surprising figure who contemporary critics might have labelled 'Woke Wilkie'. In this his bicentenary year, Matthew will open up the world of Wilkie Collins's fiction - a world that is profoundly strange, but deeply engaged with questions with which we're still grappling today. Whether on restitution, polyamory, disability or gender roles, Collins wasn't just ahead of his own time but in many ways, ahead of ours.
