| adam_text | The novels studied in this book share one
fundamental quality: they are exciting to
read. While they reflect an age of
enormous social and political advances
for women, they also illuminate the
fascination, felt by many women writers
in twentieth-century Britain, with their
characters individual thought processes.
Women Writing Modern Fiction: A Passion
for Ideas draws connections between the
work of authors such as Elizabeth Bowen,
Dorothy L. Sayers, Olivia Manning,
Barbara Pym and A. S. Byatt, who
dramatize darkness in wartime, gothic
terror, madness, and romantic betrayal,
yet celebrate the triumph of rationality
and the higher common sensp .
Bypassing the innovations of the
modernists, they rewrite the Victorian
novel in stylish modern dress. With irony,
detachment, wit, and high intelligence
they bring us acrobatic tales of the mind.
