Rosamond Lehmann : The Ballad and the Source

'All day I read and finished Rosamond Lehmann's novel, The Ballad and the Source, which Logan P.-S. thinks the best novel since Henry James. I daresay he is right and I am immensly impressed. My only criticisms are that the story is told in dialogue, and I do not think that a child of 10 to 14 should be the channel through which a terrible drama is unfolded. Nevertheless, what a story!'

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: James Lees-Milne      Print: Book
