  • Henry Green

    Havoc in the House of Fiction

    by Peter Wolfe ...
    By mid-career, many successful writers have found a groove and their readers come to expect a familiar consistency and fidelity. Not so with Henry Green (1905-1973). He prefers uncertainty over reason and fragmentation over cohesion, and rarely lets the reader settle into a nice cozy read. Evil, he suggests, can be as instructive as good. Through Green's use of paradoxical and ambiguous language, ... Read more

  • Terence Rattigan

    The Playwright as Battlefield

    by Peter Wolfe ...
    The theatrical world Terence Rattigan built is vital but disturbing and uniquely constructed. His sentences are not impacted or fractured, and his plots usually obey a linear time sequence. Yet his realism isn't all that real. Though sentence by sentence, his dialogue sounds natural, the creative pulse behind it is idiosyncratic and self-lacerating. As a gay man writing at a time when ... Read more

  • Vietnam – The Incomplete Transformation

    by Peter Wolff ...
    Series series Routledge Library Editions: Revolution in Vietnam
    This book, first published in 1999, analyses the history and major economic features of the Vietnamese reform process. The attempt to establish a post-reunification centrally planned economic system, a collectivised agriculture and a capital-intensive and inward-oriented industrial sector had largely failed, provoking the development of a parallel economy which turned out to be the nucleus of an ...

In the process it is losing its own essence as it moves into fields increasingly alien to human nature as a whole. ... Read more
