A. S. Byatt: Possession Site Map A. S. Byatt: Possession
Summary by Michael McGoodwin, prepared 2003 Acknowledgement : This work has been summarized using the Modern Library 2000 edition. Quotations are taken from that work. Overall Impression : This is a complex multifaceted novel, with entertaining and often very funny or touching characterizations. The depiction of the links between life experiences and the writing of poetry is well done. But it is often very wordy and excessively obscureparticularly in its attempts to recreate the "ponderous obfuscation" of the 19th Century poetry of the protagonists. It could be improved with some good editing, but then again I am the type of American who could not be expected to fully understand this type of thing. In her own introduction, A. S. Byatt ((Antonia Susan Byatt née Drabble) discusses how she wanted to write about Possession, the "relations between living and dead minds" (i.e., does the literary scholar possess the author who is the object of her research or vice versa), and "a parody of every possible form, popular and 'high culture' ". The following summary makes no attempt to incorporate every literary reference, interconnection, and plot element.

7. SALON Departments: Lit Chat: A.S. Byatt
A brief excerpt of an interview with author A. S. Byatt.
http://www.salon.com/08/departments/litchat.html
E nglish novelist A.S. Byatt has been described as a "postmodern Victorian." Her novels include the bestseller "Possession" and "Angels and Insects," which was recently made into a movie by director Phillip Haas. In an interview sponsored by San Francisco's City Arts and Lecture Series, Byatt discussed "Angels and Insects," D.H. Lawrence, and the challenges of literary feminism. Tell us about writing "Angels and Insects." I began with a visual image. I wanted to write a story which combined my obsession with television naturalism with my obsession with Victorian gothic. I thought you could make a really beautiful film which compared an ant heap to a Victorian mansion. And in the middle of the ant heap there's this large fat white queen simply producing children. The question is: is she the power center, or is she the slave? It didn't have a plot for a long time it was just this metaphor, which is a very simple one but works. And it got bigger and bigger. I had this vision of all these slightly sexless female servants, scurrying along the corridors of the gothic mansion like the worker ants. I read a lot of books about ant heaps, and a lot of books about Victorian servant life. The pun on "insect" and "incest" only occurred to me very, very late on, as a way of dealing with the plot, though it is, of course, also the case with insects in an ant heap. But then I had this further metaphorical idea that there should be a man who wanted to marry a butterfly and found he'd married the queen of the ants by mistake. He was a Darwinian and a determinist, while her father was desperately clinging to Christianity, and a religious lord of the manor.

Babel Tower
A.S. Byatt, Random House, 626 pages.
A lthough A.S. Byatt's new novel is set in 1960s London and the action centers around two very modern trials a divorce/custody battle and an obscenity prosecution and although the characters read and argue about Kafka and D.H. Lawrence and the heroine is a woman struggling for independence, the heart of "Babel Tower" belongs to the 19th century. This is the sort of fat, serious, passionate book that George Eliot and Thomas Hardy wrote, a good read and an ambitious creation by an author who behaves as if James Joyce never existed and gets away with it. The novel begins as the fiercely bookish Frederica Reiver realizes she's made a terrible and irrevocable mistake. Stricken by the accidental death of her sister and dazzled by sex, she married Nigel, a rich, wolfish squire with whom she produced one beloved son, Leo. The marriage has degenerated into captivity and violence, and she flees for the city, Leo in tow, to resume her life as an intellectual surrounded by her Cambridge-educated friends. "I must work ," Frederica avers, landing a job with a publisher who, on her recommendation, puts out a book, "Babeltower: A Tale for the Children of Our Time," about an anything-goes utopian community where everything goes very, very bad. The hair-raising Sadean hijinks depicted by the book's author, Jude Mason, land both author and publisher in court.
