Decadent Women
The never-before-told story of the extraordinary women behind a trailblazing British magazine. During the 1890s, British women for the first time began to leave their family homes to seek work, accommodation, and financial and sexual freedom. Decadent Women is an account of some of these women who wrote for the innovative art and literary journal The Yellow Book. For the first time, and drawing on original research, Jad Adams describes the lives and work of these vibrant and passionate women, from well-connected and fashionable aristocrats to the desperately poor. He narrates the challenges they faced in a literary marketplace, and within a society that overwhelmingly favored men, showing how they were pioneers of a new style, living lives of lurid adventure and romance, as well as experiencing poverty, squalor, disease, and unwanted pregnancy.

Calendar Modern Letts 4v Cb
First Published in 1966. The Calendar, which appeared between March 1925 and July 1927, was able to spread its influence much more widely than its present lack of reputation would suggest. It had much to do with the growth of the modern movement in criticism. By 1920, the old literary establishment had been almost entirely ousted by the younger generation that had been coming into prominence since about 1910. This title aims to showcase that, during this short period of existence, The Calendar of Modern Letters published some of the best criticism to appear in any literary review since the decline of the great politico-literary reviews of the nineteenth century.
