Reviews
"A book about love, identity, acceptance and the freedom to write, paint, compose and wear corduroy breeches with gaiters. To swear, kiss, publish and be damned. It is vastly entertaining and often moving. . .There isn't a page without an entertaining vignette ." -- Times, "Souhami has covered lesbian lives before, and with prodigious energy. Her biographies of artistic and literary lesbians comprise a magnificent, important archive of queer history. . . . With No Modernism Without Lesbians she stops dancing around the point - the point being the importance of lesbian creative contributions to modern culture - and goes straight for the jugular. Forget Hemingway, Joyce, Pound, and all those other misogynistic male egos. Without lesbians, there would be no modernism. The women featured here were not the only ones responsible for supporting and facilitating the modernist movement, but they each played a hugely integral role. . . . No Modernism Without Lesbians , with its accessible, sprightly and engaging prose, is a delight and a must-read. With impeccable scholarship and a vibrant narrative, she explores the lives not just of these four women but of the dozens of other lesbians whose stories are part of their stories. Souhami writes with love for her subjects, which is contagious and brings them vibrantly to life, and makes the book an important and inspiring contribution to modernist and lesbian culture in its own right." -- Pop Matters "A book about love, identity, acceptance and the freedom to write, paint, compose and wear corduroy breeches with gaiters. To swear, kiss, publish and be damned. It is vastly entertaining and often moving ... There isn't a page without an entertaining vignette ." --Times, "Fascinating and thorough. In style, substance, insight and wit it is by far the best thing anyone has written on the fateful life of Radclyffe Hall." --Jeanette Winterson on The Trials of Radclyffe Halle, 'A book about love, identity, acceptance and the freedom to write, paint, compose and wear corduroy breeches with gaiters. To swear, kiss, publish and be damned' The Times ., "Souhami challenges the Modernist canon that has dominated cultural education at their expense, foregrounding instead great men and their muses. . . No Modernism Without Lesbians is important for 2020 because it rips apart the prevailing patriarchal model. What Souhami calls for is abandoning the Modernist canon and rebuilding it one lesbian at a time to create a new, inclusive, 21st-century model." -- Gay & Lesbian Review, "Souhami has covered lesbian lives before, and with prodigious energy.

If No Modernism Without Lesbians goes some way towards making us understand how they thought of themselves, and what they did, it will have done some good'" -- Spectator "Souhami has written several fine biographies... Now, in a comprehensive cultural history, she awards lesbians the credit for modernising art, manners and morals in the early twentieth century'" -- Observer " No Modernism Without Lesbians is undoubtedly a contribution, correcting the history of modernism to more accurately account for the women who made possible such a lasting transformation in literature and art... Souhami has opened the door to history a little further, creating more precious space for the whole truth to enter'" -- Daily Beast "[A] vivid cultural history...

Souhami is a brilliant guide and this book a celebration, corrective and fillip all in one'" --Chris Gribble, judge of the 2021 Polari Prize and CEO of the National Centre for Writing, 'Souhami has written several fine biographies ...

This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.
