The English Novel and Prose Narrative

More about the book

"Adopting a case-study approach, the author provides theoretically informed readings of Pamela Tristram Shandy, Emma, Jane Eyre, The Mill on the Floss, Bleak House, The Spoils of Poynton, Mrs. Dalloway and Midnight's Children as well as short stories by Thomas Hardy and Katherine Mansfield. While primarily an introductory guide, the book also offers a distinct approach to the history of novel criticism that will engage readers interested in the genre at the levels."--BOOK JACKET.
