Seventeen essays by the critic and novelist celebrate the contributions of his favorite authors, including D. H. Lawrence and Vladimir Nabokov, and consider their influence on his own writings.

English author, literary critic, and Birmingham professor David Lodge has given us a thoughtful collection of essays on writing, serving as an end-of-century bookend for E. M. Forster's Aspects of the Novel. But given the particular century in which Lodge writes, he doesn't stop with prose but also considers stage and television work--he adapted Martin Chuzzlewit for the BBC-- giving the book its greatest strength. Lodge's range runs from academic musings to television scripts, a breadth worthy of any scribe here on the disparate, millennial cusp.
David Lodge is Honorary Professor of Modern English Literature at the University of Birmingham, where he taught from 1960 to 1987.
