English Modernism

This is the first systematic analysis of the relationship between representations of Germanness in modernist British literature, the construction of English identity and the negotiation of modernity. Major figures such as Conrad, Woolf and Ford are examined alongside popular or less-familiar writers such as Saki and Stevie Smith.
