For the past four decades Frank Kermode, critic and writer, has steadily established himself as one of the most brilliant minds of his generation. Questioning the public’s harsh perception of ‘the artist’, Kermode at the same time gently pokes fun at artists’ own, often inflated, self-image. He identifies what has become one of the defining characteristics of the Romantic tradition – the artist in isolation and the emerging power of the imagination. Back in print after an absence of over a decade, The Romantic Image is quintessential Kermode. Enlightenment has seldom been so enjoyable!


Review

‘Kermode’s effortless learning, lucid intelligence and wry, self-deprecating style prove that, at its best, literary criticism itself is a lively art.’

Al Alvarez
