(Percy) Wyndham Lewis was a novelist, painter, essayist, polemicist and one of the truly dynamic forces of the early 20th century. He was the founder of Vorticism, the only original movement in 20th century English painting. As a novelist, he was highly ranked by his contemporaries: "the most distinguished living novelist" (T.S. Eliot), "the only English writer who can be compared to Dostoevsky" (Ezra Pound).
