This is the first critical study of Clara Dorothea Rackham née Tabor (1875-1966), a towering figure in the suffrage, labour, co-operative, peace and adult education movements but virtually forgotten today.

This study offers a new perspective on the literature of the inter-war period. The author analyzes novels of sensibility, domestic fictions, lesbian writing, autobiography, speculative fiction and anti-fascist writing by Virginia Woolf, Rebecca West, Rosamond Lehmann, Radclyffe Hall and others.

An original mapping of women's writing in the 1940s and 1950s, this book looks at Englishness and national identity in women's writing and includes writing from Scotland, Wales, Ireland the Indian subcontinent and Africa. The authors discussed include Virginia Woolf, Daphne Du Maurier, Doris Lessing and Muriel Spark.
