Novel

A novel is a relatively long work of narrative fiction, normally in prose, which is typically published as a book.

Novel

All novels are sequels; influence is bliss.

Michael Chabon in Henry Jenkins; Wyn Kelley; Katie Clinton (2013). Reading in a Participatory Culture: Remixing Moby-Dick in the English Classroom. Teachers College Press. p. 146. ISBN 978-0-8077-5401-6.

Novel

As for 'story' I never yet did enjoy a novel or play in which someone didn't tell me afterward that there was something wrong with the story, so that's going to be no drawback as far as I'm concerned. "Good Lord, why am I so bored"—"I know; it must be the plot developing harmoniously." So I often reply to myself, and there rises before me my special nightmare—that of the writer as craftsman, natty and deft.

E. M. Forster, Selected Letters (1985), letter 104, to Forrest Reid, 19 June 1912

Novel

The novel belongs to the category of natural poetry - the allegory to that of the artificial.

Fostering understanding and prediction of climate change

Scientists use ever-more sophisticated numerical models to understand the mechanisms that shape Earth's climate and predict how it is likely to evolve. An EU-funded project is boosting Europe's contribution to this on-going international research effort and facilitates the distribution and exploitation of model data.
