Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown
'Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown' is an essay by Virginia Woolf published in 1924 which explores modernity. Woolf addresses what she sees as the arrival of modernism, with the much-cited phrase "that in or about December, 1910, human character changed", referring to Roger Fry's exhibition Manet and the Post-Impressionists. She argued that this in turn led to a change in human relations, and thence to change in "religion, conduct, politics, and literature". She envisaged modernism as inherently unstable, with society and culture in flux. She develops her argument through the examination of two generations of writers. Her argument is that as times change, writers and the tools that they use must evolve, "the tools of one generation are useless to the next". She places Bennett in the Edwardians, and the subjects of his attacks as "Georgians" to reflect the change of monarch in 1910 that coincided with Fry's exhibition. She characterizes Georgian writers in modernist terms as impressionistic, and those that are "telling the truth."
Mr. Prohack
'Mr. Prohack' is a novel by Arnold Bennett, best remembered today for his novels 'Anna of the Five Towns', 'The Old Wives' Tale', and 'Clayhanger'. 'Mr. Prohack' is a book about a man who bears the same name as the title of this novel—Mr. Arthur Prohack. He is a government official who received a windfall that elevated his family's position from middle class to upper. Of course, more money does not always mean less problems—and in Mr. Prohack's case, in particular, an avalanche of problems awaits.

Mr Bennet's Bride by Emma Wood is set in the 1780s, 25 years before the novel Pride and Prejudice opens. The play concerns the ill-suited couple Mr and Mrs Bennet, portrayed with such humour in that famous novel, and examines how they met and decided to marry. When it debuted in 2014, at the Newcastle Theatre Company, its ticket sales were the third highest in the group's sixty year history.
Mr. Bennett
"Two consecutive life sentences for the terrorist charges plus fifteen years for the abduction of Jordan Sinclair," the Judge says. They think this is over; they couldn't be more wrong. The fun is just about to begin. Six months later . . . it's time. The plan is finally complete. The note is short, but the instructions are clear. "Loading dock tomorrow afternoon," is all it says. I know the details; I'm the one who came up with them. I've just been waiting for confirmation of place and time to begin the next phase of my life. I smile to myself as I slip the note into my mouth and start to chew.
