Category : BookAspects of the Novel' is part memoir, part analysis, in which our greatest literary critic contributes a series of wonderfully insightful pieces on the dozen 20th century novelists writing in English he most admires; from EM Forster, whose greatest work was published before 1925 through to contemporary novelists like Ian McEwan and Graham Swift. Philip Roth, Margaret Attwood, Muriel Spark, John Updike, Kazuo Ishiguro, Doris Lessing, John Fowles and Saul Bellow are also featured in this book whose breadth of learning is unequalled. Frank Kermode knows (or knew) all these writers and his book represents the dual benefit of personal knowledge, critical detachment and he conclusively deliberates the development of the novel in English from Forster and Virginia Woolf and James Joyce in the 1920s to the current great practitioners of fiction.Other products from Rakuten Kobo Canada
