Essays on John Fowles (1926-2005) Ten years after his death in November 2005, novelist John Fowles is an almost forgotten figure. His novels, once widely discussed and debated, are seldom read and rarely even mentioned in current-day literary circles. I am both saddened and surprised by this state of affairs. I believe that John Fowles ranks among the half-dozen finest novelists of his generation, and his books still have much to teach us. With the goal of spurring more interest in this seminal figure in 20th century literature, I am commemorating the 10th anniversary of Fowles's death by publishing 5 online essays on his work.
