Review # 1 was written on 2020-10-17 00:00:00 Steve Fehl I disagree with him -- on Larkin anyway -- but I've got a paper to prove my point. Let's hope it gets published in one form or another. Regardless, this is a seminal work, and a very thorough exploration of what 'The Movement' actually is. It's perceptive and intelligent, which accounts for the rating -- I may not agree but you can't say he didn't do his work -- or that his arguments are shoddy. It is also clearly written (something unconscious?) -- very much showing the same principles of 'rationality' that Morrison argues characterises the Movement. This was published back in 1980, but it's understandable why this is still considered one of the most important books on the Movement. It's a little strained at times, but it's what will happen if you make a 'strong' version of a thesis -- nothing ever fits perfectly -- and thus making a strong claim is usually a little contentious. It's better than being completely bland and agreeable however.
