''Gates of Paradise'' is the kind of novel that brings history alive. I didn't know anything much about the poet William Blake before I started reading it. I had come across a few of his poems, but had no impression in my mind of the man himself. However, Beryl Kingston has constructed a very believable Blake, in a historical context which fits well with biographical details that I have since looked up on Wikipedia.
