Q. D. Leavis was one of the finest critics of the novel. Her
published essays appeared as articles and reviews of remarkable
trenchancy in Scrutiny (of which she was effectively co-editor with
her husband F. R. Leavis), or as lectures or as introductions to
editions of classic novels. Now, for the first time, they have been
collected and reprinted in three volumes. This volume collects her
lecture 'The American Novel'; essays and lectures on Henry James,
Hawthorne, Melville, and Edith Wharton; and the lectures 'The
French Novel', 'The Russian Novel', and 'The Italian Novel'. There
is an introduction by the editor, Professor G. Singh. All the
essays are informed by that broad 'sociological' view of literature
that caused Q. D. Leavis to ask how the novel rose and why it
flourished.
