Description
Richard Hughes (1900-1976) author of "A High Wind in Jamaica, In Hazard "and" The Human Predicament "is widely acknowledged as a popular and successful novelist. This first major study of his novels persuasively argues the case for regarding Hughes as a sophisticated modernist novelist and a far more complex and original artist than previously supposed.
'This is an admirable and, in my opinion, seminal work of criticism and nobody with a serious interest in the twentieth-century novel can afford to ignore it.' "(New Welsh Review)"
