For the better part of forty years, Edith Sitwell's poetry has been
neglected by critics. But born into a family of privileged
eccentrics, Edith Sitwell was highly regarded by her
contemporaries: the great writers and artists of the day who
attended her unlikely London literary salon. Her quips and
anecdotes were legendary and her works like English Eccentrics
confirmed her comic genius, while later she established herself as
the quintessential poet of the Blitz. This masterly biography,
meticulously researched and drawing on many previously unseen
letters, firmly places Edith Sitwell in the literary tradition to
which she belongs.
