Reviews

'Perhaps because he is a good novelist himself, Mr Lodge's subjection of various writers to detailed linguistic analysis is illuminating and exciting.' - Daily Telegraph


'Perhaps because he is a good novelist himself, Mr Lodge's subjection of various writers to detailed linguistic analysis is illuminating and exciting.' - Daily Telegraph 'Perhaps because he is a good novelist himself, Mr Lodge's sujection of various writers to detailed linguistic analysis is illuminating and exciting.' - Daily Telegraph 'Something of a milestone in English criticism ... an important addition to English critical writing about the genre of the novel' - Tony Tanner, The Modern Language Review '... in many ways the most interesting of recent books on the novel, knowledgeable and closely argued.' - William Righter, The Listener 'readable, sensitive, perceptive' - Robert Scholes, Contemporary Literature
