Queenie Dorothy Leavis was one of the best critics of the novel.
Her primary interest was in the English novel in its greatest
period the nineteenth-century, but she had wide interests and wrote
on the American novel as well; and her anthropological view of
literature caused her to ask how the novel rose and why it
flourished and that occasioned her to look at European literatures.
Her published essays appeared as articles or reviews of remarkable
trenchancy in Scrutiny, or as lectures or introductions to editions
of classic novels. They have been much read but she never collected
them in her lifetime. They are here reprinted in three volumes. The
whole is prefaced by her own 'A Glance Backward, 1965' concerning
her life and work and there is an introduction by the editor,
Professor G. Singh.
