Some academics produce streams of fantastic concepts and ideas but their attempts at articulating them to a wider reading public stumble into jargon and complexity. Thankfully David Lodge has no such troubles. As a mighty fine novelist ([[Nice Work by David Lodge|Nice Work]], [[Thinks... by David Lodge|Thinks...]], Deaf Sentence and many more) who also has a day job as a professor of English, Lodge is perfectly qualified to deliver a book on the craft of writing an in The Art of Fiction he has delivered one that is informative and enlightening as well as highly entertaining.
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to The Bookbag.
Further reading suggestion: [[Nice Work by David Lodge]]or [[The Fiction Class by Susan Breen]] although we were not entirely convinced about the latter.
