David Lodge wrote comic literary fiction and criticism, with universities, Catholicism, marriage and the habits of writers recurring throughout his work. Changing Places begins his Campus Trilogy by swapping British academic Philip Swallow with American professor Morris Zapp; Small World and Nice Work continue the satire through conferences, literary theory and industry. The British Museum Is Falling Down uses a young Catholic couple's anxieties about contraception as the basis for literary parody. Lodge's novels are witty, accessible and structurally playful, with academic ideas turned into social comedy. His work fits campus novel, British satire, literary comedy and metafiction.
