Theory of the Novel

Summary: Grey grey is all theory
Review: Some of the finest literary critics of their time ( 1967) tell us about narrative technique, points- of view, plot, structure and proportion, style , character, time and place, symbol, life and art in the novel. Critics such as Northrop Frye, A.AD. Mendilow and novelists Conrad, James, Cervantes provide insight into the form which is in our world still the highest literary art form. There are many valuable pieces of writing here for any one who wishes to deepen their understanding of the form.
