Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was a prolific British writer renowned for his novels, plays, and works of non-fiction that captured the essence of life in the Staffordshire Potteries, an area with which he was intimately familiar. Bennett’s literary career spanned many facets of writing, from journalism and essays, to his role as a leading novelist of his time. ‘The Author’s Craft’ is one of his significant non-fiction works, wherein Bennett reflects on the nuances of literary production and the careful crafting required to succeed as a writer. His style is characterized by detailed descriptions and a focus on the routines and mundanities of everyday life. Often drawing from his experiences and the provincial life of the English Midlands, Bennett explored the conditions of modern life and the interior worlds of his characters with both wit and sympathy. His notable works also include ‘The Grand Babylon Hotel’, ‘Anna of the Five Towns’, and ‘The Old Wives’ Tale’, the latter of which is regarded as his masterpiece, profoundly influencing the structure of the English novel and offering a rich depiction of late Victorian society. Despite being overlooked at times within the modernist-dominated literary circles of his era, Bennett’s work has endured, reflecting his deep understanding of character and the human condition.
