A Short Critical History

Lovely and blue, this vintage Pelican book is for you! Add this 1963 edition of The English Novel by Walter Allen to your reading list! In this panorama of English fiction the development of the novel is followed from Pilgrim’s Progress to James Joyce and D.H.Lawrence. The evolution of the novel during this period of 250 years is revealed by an appraisal of the world of the most significant of our novelists, and in this piece of sustained analysis Mr Walter Allen shows himself to be an acute and sensitive critic as well as an authoritative historian.

`There will be... many to admire the sensitive common sense and the complete devotion to his subject which make Mr Allen one of the best critics of fiction we have` - Guardian
`Both the critics and the public will take pleasure in Mr Allen`s The English Novel. For one thing, it is refreshingly alert` - The Times Literary Supplement
