- Summary
- "A monograph analysing a number of modern British women writers and the way in which the canon of post-war British writing has been formed. It argues that literary excellence, demonstrated by style and imaginative power, is often missing in many works that have become modern classics and makes a case for the value of the 'universal' in literature."--Pub. desc.
