Jan Montefiore teaches English and Women's Studies at the University of Kent, and is the author of Feminism and Poetry (1987).
"This is a superb account of the role of memory in the examination of literature. Montefiore writes very penetratingly about Virginia Woolf and Rebecca West but also tries to restore the neglected talents of Sylvia Townsend Warner and Storm Jameson to their proper place in our attention. The decade has been well-ploughed as a field, but never so intelligently. On the male side of the account, she subjects George Orwell's writing to the best critique that I have ever read."
-Christopher Hitchens, "The Washington Post, 12/8/96
