description: This unusually perceptive study is the first to treat at length both the novel sequence as an art form and the concept of time as a vital ingre­dient of it. The writers and works discussed are Doris Lessing’s Children of Violence , Olivia Manning’s Balkan Trilogy , Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet , Anthony Burgess’s Malayan Trilogy , C. P. Snow’s Strangers and Brothers , and Anthony Powell’s as yet uncompleted Dance to the Music of Time.
