Aims to demonstrate that books matter most on a personal level and that reading offers a great deal more to the reader than a mere escape into fantasy. Using the modern novel as a starting point, the author draws upon Ben Jonson, Bunyan, Byron, Wordsworth and Eliot to develop his thesis.
First published in 1991. This book is written with the intent to reach serious readers in and outside a university through joint mental contact with serious writers of the present and the past. To get whatever there is to be got out of this book, a reader should also read or have read (at least) Bernard Malamud’s A New Life, Saul Bellow’s Herzog and Doris Lessing’s The Marriages Between Zones Three, Four and Five, so that we can work together.
