The demand and sale are widelytaken as the criterion of excellence, or they are at least sufficientencouragement of further work on the line of the success. This criterionis accepted by the publisher, whose business it is to supply a demand. The conscientious publisher asks two questions: Is the book good? andWill it sell? The publisher without a conscience asks only one question:Will the book sell? The reflex influence of this upon authors isimmediately felt.
The novel, mediocre, banal, merely... sensational, and worthless for anypurpose of intellectual stimulus or elevation of the ideal, is thusencouraged in this age as it never was before. The making of novels hasbecome a process of manufacture. Usually, after the fashion of thesilk-weavers of Lyons, they are made for the central establishment onindividual looms at home; but if demand for the sort of goods furnishedat present continues, there is no reason why they should not be produced, even more cheaply than they are now, in great factories, where there canbe division of labor and economy of talent.
