A bumper treat for fiction fanatics... drawn with incision and wit to make (for) exhilarating reading (Peter Lewis Daily Mail 2011-12-23)
Witty and humane... a wonderful book that it makes you want to slink off and ransack a well-stocked library. (Henry Hitchings FT 2011-10-29)
Pithy quotes and witty moments (Jonathan Bate Sunday Telegraph 2011-11-20)

A modern take on a reassuringly ancient format... neatly interweaves stories of the lives of writers with quirky insights into their work... highly readable (Anne McElvoy New Statesman 2011-11-21)

Arranged in chronological order, the novelist's lives are opinionated, informative, frequently funny and often shocking. Professor Sutherland's authors come from all over the world; their writings illustrate every kind of fiction from gothic, penny dreadfuls and pornography to fantasy, romance and high literature.
The book shows the changing forms of the genre, and how the aspirations of authors to divert and sometimes to educate their readers, has in some respects radically changed over the centuries, and in others - such as their interest in sex and relationships - remained remarkably constant.
