Summary:

In this first book-length study of Stevie Smith, Romana Huk reassesses the work of this major twentieth-century woman writer as emerging not only from the practices of female literary modernism, but also from within the tumultuous cultural context of mid-century Europe. Amongst the work treated here is Smith's rarely discussed trilogy of novels: " Novel on Yellow Paper,"" Over the Frontier" and "The Holiday."
