Stories and Essays of Mina Loy, Paperback / softback Book

Stories and Essays of Mina Loy Paperback / softback

Edited by Sara Crangle

Part of the British Literature Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

"Stories and Essays of Mina Loy" is the first book-length volume of Mina Loy's narrative writings and critical work ever published.

This volume brings together her short fiction, as well as hybrid works that include modernized fairy tales, a Socratic dialogue, and a ballet.

Loy's narratives address issues such as abortion and poverty, and what she called "the sex war" is an abiding theme throughout. "Stories and Essays of Mina Loy" also contains dramatic works that parody the bravado and misogyny of Futurism and demonstrate Loy's early, effective use of absurdist technique.

Essays and commentaries on aesthetics, historical events, and religion complete this beguiling collection, cementing Mina Loy's place as one of the great writers of the twentieth century.
