The Man in the Machine consists of new assessments of major writers and critics by the author of whose last book Roger Sale wrote:
T. S. Eliot was not so good a reviewer as Marvin Mudrick is.
Mr. Sale’s comments on the qualities that distinguish him as one of our most effective critics comprise an apt description of Marvin Mudrick’s new book, in which he deals with such masters as Kafka, D. H. Lawrence, Jane Austen, Trollope, Saint-Simon, Conrad, Chekhov, and Solzhenitsyn; and with the critics, Leavis on Dickens, and Ellmann on Joyce.
