Laura Severin is associate professor of English and director of women's and gender studies at North Carolina State University.
"A fine contribution to Smith scholarship, one that helps us
understand a period in twentieth-century British literary history
that has never received the kind of attention that either earlier
or very contemporary British literature has."--Ann Ardis,
University of Delaware
"Severin provides valid reasons why cultural historians, feminists,
and literary scholars should pay attention to the works of Stevie
Smith. She argues that within Smith's work lies an effort to resist
the conservative domestic ideology of her time, and that the
techniques Smith employed in her writings, drawings, and
performance poetry, are utilized as forms of resistance."--Jack V.
Barbera, University of Mississippi
