Novelist W. L. George admires the novel because, among other things, “it expresses the mind of man, his pains that pass, his hopes that fade and are born again . . .” which all other book forms—history and economics, for example—fail to do. This collection of essays was controversial when published, as they deemed the English novel too prudish.
