The History of British Women's Writing, 1945-1975: Volume Nine - volume 9 (1st ed. 2017 edition.)

This volume reshapes our understanding of British literary culture from 1945-1975 by exploring the richness and diversity of women's writing of this period.

Essays by leading scholars reveal the range and intensity of women writers' engagement with post-war transformations including the founding of the Welfare State, the gradual liberalisation of attitudes to gender and sexuality and the reconfiguration of Britain and the empire in the context of the Cold War.
