Adams, Robert A LOVE OF READING: Reviews of Contemporary Fiction
Toronto McClelland & Stewart 2003 0771006594 / 9780771006593 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Fine Signed by Author
Hard Cover, FINE/FINE unpriceclipped blue dustjacket, 8vo, 304 pp. inscribed on half-title page.Adams has now gathered eighteeen of his most brilliant reviews, from Jack Maggs by Peter Carey and The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver to A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry and Barney's Version by Mordecai Richler. In each he skilfully interweaves a nimble and entertaining discussion of plot, theme and characterization with fascinating historical, biographical, and literary context. He is repeatedly drawn to the spectacle of leee-than-perfect humans making their way in a hostile world, and as a result his reviews are a hugely satisfying mix of rich pathos and abundant humour.

Adams, Robert Martin NIL
New York Oxford University Press 1966 66-22257
Hardcover, VERY GOOD/ VERY GOOD 249 pp. The sense of vacancy and emptiness that is a major characteristic of the modern sensibility held a strong appeal for 19th-century writers such as Baudelaire, Gogol and Melville. The author describes the various ways in which, during the nineteenth century, this rather difficult and elusive topic became domesticated within the literature of Western Europe, and its repertory of effects available to the modern literary imagination. Professor Adams provides a fresh perspective on the literature of the nineteenth century and on its characteristic energies, and elucidates the nature of a baffling but exciting adventure of the human imagination.
