Résumé

Leo Simpson's The Peacock Papers reproduces the prose style and the character types of Thomas Love Peacock's novels. Simpson's characters, like Peacock's, are a mixture of satirized individuals and satirized general tendencies. Many notable literary figures are among Simpson's cast of characters. It is possible that the anti-realist, experimental fiction of the late twentieth century owes something to Thomas Love Peacock.
