Sends the reader back to writers' works (including Mr. Lodge's own) with a renewed appreciation of what makes them tick and why (New York Times) These essays, so easy in manner, so well-built and informative, offer a fine blend of creative writing and criticism...The essays on writers who have meant most to him as a novelist, notably Graham Greene (on whom nobody has written better) and Joyce, are brilliant (Sunday Times).
