Review # 1 was written on 2016-10-08 00:00:00 Francis Hawcp Crazy uneven: the introductory chapters are great. Bergonzi was clearly at his best making general arguments, and the contrasts he draws between American and English literature are interesting. But in his readings of innumerable English novels, it just gets boring. This is interpretation as plot summary. But when he's writing about the relation between literature and society, he's great.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-06-28 00:00:00 Marquise Williams An extremely useful guide to trends and movements and the current state of the novel.
