Surveys the career of Julian Barnes - an innovative British novelist who has been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize on three occasions.

This is a telling assessment of the divergent works of a daring British writer. ""Understanding Julian Barnes"" surveys the career of an innovative British novelist who has been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize on three occasions. In this analysis of Barnes'' distinctive qualities and of his place in the British literary establishment, Merritt Moseley suggests that Barnes'' greatest achievement is his ability to resist summary and categorization by imagining each book in a dramatically original way. In evaluating Barnes'' fiction, Moseley discusses the novelist''s admiration for Gustave Flaubert, identifies his technical and thematic concerns, and explores the intrigue surrounding his divided career as a writer of serious novels, published under his own name, and of detective thrillers, published under the pseudonym Dan Kavanagh.
