Books by P. Brown

Why are America and Britain wealthier than ever but millions of children live in poverty, neighbourhoods want for basic amenities and the middle classes fear for their families, jobs and futures? An obsession that the New Democrats in America and the New Labour in Britain have failed to exorcize.

The author examines a selection of early 20th century novels, written by women, in an attempt to examine the development of female images of "self". The writers quoted include Antonia White, Dorothy Richardson and May Sinclair.
