| Synopsis: |
This book is a study of those aspects of the novel that contribute to the pace and rhythm of reading. It argues that the process of reading becomes an image of the way that time is perceived by the author. The discussion starts with Trollope and concludes with some contemporary popular British authors, showing that both in Victorian literature and in popular writing now, the rhythm of the work is largely determined by the author's sympathetic presentation of purpose, expectation, and achievement. |
