The Masters is the fifth novel in C. P. Snow’s series Strangers and Brothers. It involves the election of a new Master at narrator Lewis Eliot’s unnamed Cambridge College, which resembles Christ’s College where Snow was a fellow. The 1951 novel’s dedication is “In memory of G. H. Hardy”, the Cambridge mathematician. It was the first of the Strangers and Brothers series to be published in the United States.

Charles Percy Snow, Baron Snow (15 October 1905 – 1 July 1980) was an English novelist and physical chemist who also served in several important positions in the British Civil Service and briefly in the UK government. He is best known for his series of novels known collectively as Strangers and Brothers, and for “The Two Cultures”, a 1959 lecture in which he laments the gulf between scientists and “literary intellectuals”.
