Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Lineage of Lichfield: An Essay in Eugenics
Yet, underlying all, of course, is the pro founder connecting theme that Horvendile is the erratic demiurge who composes and controls the entire business extempore, without any prompter except his own aesthetic whims: but that is really a matter almost too complex here to explain. Rather does discretion urge me to refer you to Saevius Nicanor's fine chapter on this very interesting theory. For it all comes back to theory, and to the cooling re?ection that it is the nature of every explanatory theory to be evolved after the phenomena it accounts for, - even, I suspect, when it is one's own theory about one's own books.
