In Fame and Fiction published in 1901, Bennett analyzes the tastes and whims of the “great public.” He includes chapters on popular authors of his day: J. M. Barrie, George Gissing, Ivan Turgenev, George Moore, and even some whose popularity was more fleeting. Underlying all is Bennett’s fervent democratic belief that Fame dies but the Soul lives.
A propos de l’auteur
Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was a British writer whose prolific output included numerous works of fiction and nonfiction, literary criticism as well as theatre journalism, an opera, and a screenplay. English novelist Margaret Drabble says of him, “Bennett’s books I think are very fine indeed, on the highest level, deeply moving… I feel they have been underrated.”
