		On the other hand, Helen and Ralph have a lot in common: As a novelist, she's just as interested in the mysteries of human consciousness as he is, and the wildly different approaches of their chosen fields to this central enigma of existence are fodder for fascinating conversation.
		Lodge sets up the novel in a way that's ingeniously suited to his subject: Ralph is conducting an experiment to try to determine the nature of thought, so he talks into a tape recorder freely and later transcribes the stream-of-consciousness ramblings; Helen, for her part, is an inveterate daily journal writer.
		It helps, of course, that she holds the family purse strings and that Ralph couldn't leave without a big drop in his standard of living, but if Lodge has to at times strain credulity to keep his playing field level, so be it.

		Still, it is something of a struggle to imagine Henry James himself descending into this vulgar arena, and the chief virtue of David Lodge's latest novel is that he convincingly shows us "The Master" as he begins to make his sordid, pecuniary calculations.

		Lodge chooses a standard structure for his novel, as familiar from films as from books: the deathbed with flashbacks.
		Lodge himself, appearing in person at the other end of the book, describes them as 'foundation stones of the modern psychological novel', yet James's place in the canon isn't quite so secure.
		Lodge thinks so and takes a lot of trouble to build it up, with walk-on parts for Bernard Shaw, Arnold Bennett, HG Wells and others, but there's a risk that he will imitate James all too closely, the James of whom it was said that he had bitten off less than he could chew.

	Harvard University Press/Consciousness and the Novel
		As the richest record we have of human consciousness, literature, David Lodge suggests, may offer a kind of understanding that is complementary, not opposed, to scientific knowledge.
		Writing with characteristic wit and brio, and employing the insight and acumen of a skilled novelist and critic, Lodge here explores the representation of human consciousness in fiction (mainly English and American) in light of recent investigations in the sciences.
		In essays on Charles Dickens, E. Forster, Evelyn Waugh, Kingsley and Martin Amis, Henry James, John Updike, and Philip Roth, and in reflections on his own practice as a novelist, Lodge is able to bring to light--and to engaging life--the technical, intellectual, and sometimes simply mysterious working of the creative mind.
