Amy Levy was a talented Anglo-Jewish writer who committed suicide at the age of 28 in 1889. During her brief career she published essays, short stories, three novels, and three collections of poetry, but none of them is in print today and her works are to be found almost solely in the closed stacks and rare book collections of university libraries. To correct this unavailability and set the stage for a generous selection of her work, Melvyn New introduces Amy Levy as an unmarried Victorian woman and an urban intellectual, disillusioned by the mores of her culture, yet unable to abandon her identification with the English Jews who embodied so much of what she scorned. He reconstructs her world in 1880s England-a time when the president of the British Medical Association warned his colleagues that educated women would become ""more or less sexless. . . . [Such women] have highly developed brains but most of them die young""-raising questions that lead to the tortured heart and mind of this ""found"" writer. | The Complete Novels and Selected Writings of Amy Levy 1861?1889 by Melvyn New Paperback | Indigo Chapters Books > Literary Criticism > Criticism & Theory P10106, Melvyn New<
