When the maxim "Every man has within himself one book" is pondered, it is of narrative that one is thinking. Thus Cervantes has borne humanity along, rushing, against the windmills with Don Quixote, or protesting with Sancho Panza; thus Sterne ha 3 earned us with Tristram Shandy (and later, Yorick) on their Sentimental Journeyings; so De Foe has made us live with Eobinson and Friday. More recently, Bolland has revealed a soul in Jean Christophe, Nexo in Pelle the Conqueror. Occasionally the book takes form as diary or as biography, but almost always its tenor ia narration.
