In Passions of the Mind, A.S. Byatt writes as an artist and scholar taking the reader on a journey of discovery as she explores the ideas, images and attitudes to language underpinning some of her own fiction, and also the work of Great Victorians and a varied range of twentieth-century women writers.
Fascinated by the coincidence of the symbolic and real which she finds in her favourite writers Robert Browning, George Eliot and Wallace Stevens A.S. Byatt also celebrates this quality in the sun and shadows of Van Gogh's painting.
