The wireless past: Anglo-Irish writers and the BBC, 1931-1968 (First edition.)

Emily Bloom chronicles the emergence of the British Broadcasting Corporation as a significant promotional platform and aesthetic influence for Irish modernism from the 1930s to the 1960s.

She situates the works of W.B. Yeats, Elizabeth Bowen, Louis MacNeice, and Samuel Beckett in the context of the media environments that shaped their works.
