In \u003ci\u003eModernism and the Women's Popular Romance\u003c\/i\u003e Martin Hipsky scrutinizes some of the best-selling British fiction from the period 1885 to 1925, the era when romances, especially those by British women, were sold and read more widely than ever before or since. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Recent scholarship has explored the desires and anxieties addressed by both \"low modern\" and \"high modernist\" British culture in the decades straddling the turn of the twentieth century. In keeping with these new studies, Hipsky offers a nuanced portrait of an important phenomenon in the history of modern fiction. He puts popular romances by Mrs. Humphry Ward, Marie Corelli, the Baroness Orczy, Florence Barclay, Elinor Glyn, Victoria Cross, Ethel Dell, and E. M. Hull into direct relationship with the fiction of Virginia Woolf, Katherine Mansfield, James Joyce, and D. H. Lawrence, among other modernist greats.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMartin Hipsky\u003c\/b\u003e is a professor of English and an associate dean of first- year students at Ohio Wesleyan University.
