Between Realism and Modernism, the novel becomes the dominant literary genre, with an immense audience. It stages the ethical, political and economic crises of the nineteenth-century and analyses their relatedness. The book offers a close reading of four complex and powerful novels by Balzac, Flaubert, Conrad and Henry James. They represent paradigmatic reactions to the challenges of the transformations which make up the dynamics of the modern world.
