Sybil
Gillian Hanscombe performs a feat of lesbian imagination in this stunning sequence.

'Sybil' gives us a lesbian politics, a lesbian tradition, grounded in what Suniti Namjoshi defines as the prophetic. Welcome to lesbian imagination singing at full range.

Writing for Their Lives
A detailed analysis of a network of English women writers -- including Dorothy Richardson, HD, Djuna Barnes, Marianne Moore, & Mina Loy -- who were at the forefront of literary experimentation early in this century & whose lives were considered to be as avant-garde as their work. Providing a new & exciting look at Modernism, it reinstates these writers alongside such figures as James Joyce & Ezra Pound, showing that their work was as innovative & influential as that of their better-known male counterparts. Also shows how these women looked to each other for support & inspiration in their writing as well as in their lives.

Modernist Short Fiction by Women
Taking on the neglected issue of the short story's relationship to literary Modernism, Claire Drewery examines works by Katherine Mansfield, Dorothy Richardson, May Sinclair, and Virginia Woolf. Drewery argues that the short story as a genre is preoccupied with transgressing boundaries, and thus offers an ideal platform from which to examine the Modernist fascination with the liminal. Embodying both liberation and restriction, liminal spaces on the one hand enable challenges to traditional cultural and personal identities, while on the other hand they entail the inevitable negative consequences of occupying the position of the outsider: marginality, psychosis, and death. Mansfield, Richardso...
With Love & Fury
This wide range of letters reminds us of Judith Wright's deep engagement with life, her love of the world (and of friends), and the fine fury that led her to battle so courageously on the world's behalf.
