No Novel Reader (The Ugly Duckling Series)

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. 1984. xv, 202pp. "To show their seriousness, people sometimes protest that they 'read non-fiction only', claiming to regard the novel as a frippery. To that kind of remark Mr Mac-Innes may reply, equivo-cally, that 'novels are not for educated people, an answer that leaves self confidence at a loss. ? In this disquisition on the art of the novel, Mr MacInnes writes at first-hand, from the workshop as it were. He is out to clarify, to examine a comparatively modern form of writing that tends toward the demotic rather than the stately, yet is capable of infinite change and fluidity. ? His book embodies 'much in little', being a concentration of long experience and critical reflection". Softcover with attached jacket. Minor cup stain and discoloring to covers. Minor shelf wear to edges and spine. Otherwise in excellent condition with no inscriptions. Artikel-Nr. LitCrit155
