Intermodernism and the Ethics of Lateness in Evelyn Waugh and Harold Acton
Evelyn Waugh and Harold Acton had a deeply ambivalent relationship to the narrative of modernism, and their attempts to negotiate their position within the literary milieu of their own time clearly registers the tensions inherent in much of late modernist writing. Early modernism and high modernism were concerned with the nature of the ‘firstness’, of innovation and change, but as this article argues, intermodernism is best seen as an ethical mod…
The Pleasures of “Conspicuous Leisure” in Sister Carrie and The House of Mirth
The growth of leisure time for the middle- and working-classes during the second Industrial Revolution gave rise to a newly modern leisure industry. This article argues that Theodore Dreiser’s Sister Carrie and Edith Wharton’s The House of Mirth centre on this particular social and economical development as a means by which to establish that economic identity must be defined antithetically to the inescapable swell of mass, modern life. These nove…
The doors would be taken off their hinges”: Space, Place and Architectural Absence in Virginia Woolf
This article considers the affective possibilities of negative architectural space—that is, thresholds, portals and vast interior voids—in Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway (1925) and To the Lighthouse (1927), novels in which windows and doors routinely fail to serve their intended and most obvious functions. In these texts, the prominence given to thresholds not only serves to create the illusion of a spatiality, but, more broadly, the dissolution o…

Buried temples and open planes: Alethea Hayter and the architecture of drug-taking in Alan Hollinghurst'sThe Spell
Reading Alan Hollinghurst's third, and least appreciated, novel The Spell, alongside Alethea Hayter's famed study Opium and the Romantic Imagination, this article attends to the spatial metaphors of drug use as mobilized in Hollinghurst's intensely lyrical novel. The articles suggest that, through counterpoising architecture and Ecstasy, The Spell contests the teleology of a Romantic model of artistic completion, fulfilment, and spatial confineme…
