Drawing on a wealth of new evidence, this is the first full-length study of two key little magazines published in Britain before the First World War. Edited by and featuring authors and artists including John Middleton Murry, Katherine Mansfield, J.D. Fergusson, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, and D.H. Lawrence, Rhythm and The Blue Review have often been overlooked in accounts of the period. It is this omission that the author takes as a primary point of
enquiry, examining the competitive and complex networks that surrounded and defined the publications, and using them as a starting point from which to explore wider issues concerning the formation and consumption of
avant-garde culture in this dynamic transitional period.
