This is a study of those aspects of the novel that contribute to the pace and rhythm of reading. It claims that those aspects contribute much to the significance of literature, because the rhythm of the work becomes an image of the way that time is perceived, and the reader's perception of time is profoundly connected with his or her moral sense and feeling of well-being. In some authors the passage of time is meticulously plotted and reproduced in the sequence of the text; in others it is confused and complicated by elisions, by disruption of sequence, by eccentric or elusive proportion of narrative to the lapse of time, by the author's varying distance from the characters and the events they undergo. But in all of them, time is conspicuous. Twentieth-century fiction presents itself as a way of coming to terms with the mystery and disquiet we feel when we try to say what time means to us.
