Caroline Levine focuses on The Moonstone, Jane Eyre, Great Expectations, Adam Bede, and the Lifted Veil, and her major controversial argument (or at least the argument that I sense she was expecting to be scandalous in the field at the time) was that Wilkie Collins was in fact a realist. Thus, I think I should stay away from Collins, or rather mention him as Levine's pet and build from there. I guess Dickens would also be off limits because of this.
That leaves:
Arthur Conan Doyle - Sherlock Holmes (but which ones?)
and
HG Wells - The Time Machine and The Invisible Man
But then there still remains the novella problem. Should I keep Woman in White to bridge the gap between sensation novel and horror/SF novella?
