Recenzii
The book does much more, however, than recover a 'forgotten' woman writer; it expertly excavates a broad historical and cultural terrain, including visual art, high modernist debates about art, and surrealist archaeological theory.
Successfully incorporates an emphasis upon the neo-romantic elements of Butts's work with a balanced and insightful assessment of its political implications.
Discussion ranges seamlessly and somewhat indiscriminately across mysticism, magic, the paranormal, the psychic, the ineffable, the unseen, the "sheer force that lies behind" ... Radford offers penetrating glances into a variety of traditions and figures, including (though not limited to) artists such as Paul Nash and John Piper ... Even those who know the works of this curiously neglected author well will find fresh insights here.
