"Since 1900 there must have been published far more than twenty thousand novels. No man could read them all; if he did, a new spate of fiction would foam and swirl round him while he was at the task, and he would never catch up. Selection, voluntary and involuntary, there is bound to be. And it is bound to involve injustice."
Novel

January 1, 1970
