Writing way back in 1921,Virginia Woolf, describing Bennett, Wells, and Galsworthy as materiahsts, had regretted their inability for not capturing the soul of their characters. She said: "Whether we call it life or spirit, truth or reality, this, the essential thing, has movedoff, or on, and refuses to be contained any longer in such illfitting vestments as we provide "(11). Later, in 1960, David Daiches agreed with Woolf and invoked "inward vision" (7) as the thing to work for in the novel.
