The authors, the critics, the publishers: profiles, reviews, analysis from the world of letters. This week: F. R. Leavis. In his new portrait of the great Cambridge critic, William Walsh claims him as fourth in line of succession to Johnson, Coleridge and Matthew Arnold , in spite of his 'gift for striding into discomfort and even disaster '. Clive James and George Steiner join the biographer to discuss this proposition.
Also, Arthur Marshall goes down memory lane and George Melly reviews the Mona Lisa in song.
