"During the course of a career spanning half a century, Edward Garnett--editor, critic, and reader for hire--would become one of the most influential men in twentieth-century English literature. Known for his incisive criticism and unwavering conviction in matters of taste, Garnett was responsible for identifying and nurturing the talents of a generation of the greatest writers in the English language, from Joseph Conrad to John Galsworthy, Henry Green to Edward Thomas, T.E. Lawrence to D.H. Lawrence. In An Uncommon Reader, Helen Smith brings to life Garnett's intimate and at times stormy relationships with those writers and asks us to consider the multifaceted meaning of literary genius"--Page 4 of cover
