First published in 1948, English Literature Between the Wars sets
out to answer a question: to what extent did the years between the
two wars constitute a period in literature? Its exploration leads
the author to assess the changes in the reading public, and in the
movement of taste. He is led to the conclusion that in the
inter-war period some writers were aware that a crisis in
civilization was taking place and that these were the more
genuinely creative writers. Apart from a consideration of these
general problems, the volume contains studies of E.M. Forster,
James Joyce, Aldous Huxley, D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf, and
others. It also assesses the influence of war on the literature of
the period, comments on the work of the younger writers, and adds a
note on the theatre. Students of literature and history will find
this book particularly interesting.
