Description

This comprehensive literary study by Isobel Maddison offers the first book-length examination of Elizabeth von Arnim's fiction, situating her work within its historical and intellectual contexts. Maddison demonstrates how von Arnim's distinctive comic writing and complex narrative style merit sustained critical attention, revealing layers of meaning in her novels. The analysis unfolds both chronologically and thematically, drawing on previously unpublished archival materials from the British and Huntington Libraries, including correspondence between von Arnim and her publishers alongside letters exchanged with prominent contemporaries such as H.G. Wells, Bertrand Russell and her cousin Katherine Mansfield. This approach illuminates von Arnim's position within early modernist prose development and her relationships with the intellectual circles of her era. The book provides essential context for understanding how von Arnim's innovative storytelling techniques and subtle characterisation contributed to literary modernism whilst maintaining her distinctive voice and satirical edge.
