Though John Crowley, author of Endless Things, is not as well known as the most widely read American writers of the past fifty years, his work has had several influential champions, including the poet James Merrill and the literary critic Harold Bloom. In his afterword to Crowley's book Little, Big, Bloom argues that the novel adroitly blends what playwright Friedrich Schiller termed the naive and sentimental modes while Schiller thought works could be classified as either naive (seeking to describe reality) or sentimental (seeking to develop ideas), Little, Big fuses both modes of writing.
