This is the only study to focus on these three novels. The argument departs from previous scholarship by emphasizing the ambivalence and even, to some extent, hostility, evinced by each of the authors to aspects of modern social conditions, and by examining their discontent in detail. The study also shows a portrayal by the authors of a gradual increase in the tensions they detect in social and artistic conditions during the modern period.

Review
"Potter shows that the inwardness of these three novels' sustained discussion of the purposes of art is not a privileged enclave insulated from the quotidian cares of society; rather, it generates a profound and acute diagnosis of the values, the mindset, the mentality of a culture at a specific juncture of change and development." - Prof. Martin Swales University College London"
