Opis

This book tells the timely and much-needed story of the state's interest in supporting literary production in post-war Britain. Working with unexamined sources it charts the forgotten record of state sponsorship into conversation with Britain's transformation into a successful multicultural democracy.

Recenzje

State Sponsored Literature will be of the greatest value to all readers concerned to open up these questions both historically and in the present moment.
