This comprehensive and beautifully edited volume is a remarkable collection of poems by women who wrote in the interwar years.Much is known about the so-called Auden generation ,but until now little of women's poetry from this era of rapidly changing gender roles,social values and world politics has been collected or acknowledged.Jane Dowson redresses the balance by gathering together these richly varied poems,many of which were previously out of print,uncollected or simply neglected through time. Dowson provides an essential framework to the poems with an extensive critical introduction and individual biographies of each poet.This unique anthology sheds a whole new light on women's place in this era of British literary history and demands a reassessment of our understanding of 1930s poetry. Women's poetry of the 1930s will be an invaluable resource and a treasured volume for students,scholars and poetry lovers alike.
