I read “The Moonstone”. My wife read “The Woman in White” and “No Name” as well. “The Moonstone” well-written, if a bit unwieldy. From a literaty standpoint I would put it a notch below Dickens at his best, but still worth the time. I elget the vibe that Collins woukd probably lean left if he were alive today.
His later novels were overtly activist about this or that - and his sales dropped. Even back then, people didn’t enjoy being preached to. Swinburne said of Collins’ commercial decline:
What brought good Wilkie’s genius nigh perdition?
Some demon whispered—’Wilkie! have a mission.’
