Product Information

Nancy Cunard: Perfect Stranger reshapes our understanding of a woman, whose role in key historical, political, and cultural moments of the 20th century was either dismissed and attacked, or undervalued. Here, Jane Marcus, who was one of the most insightful critics of modernism and a pioneering feminist scholar, is unafraid and unapologetic in addressing and contesting Nancy Cunard?s reputation and reception as a spoiled heiress and ?sexually dangerous New Woman.? Instead, with her characteristic provocative and energetic writing style, Marcus insists we reconsider issues of gender, race, and class in relation to the accusations, stereotypes, and scandal, which have dominated, and continue to dominate, our perception of Cunard in the public record. In the wake of inadequate histories of radical writing and activism, Nancy Cunard: Perfect Stranger brings its subject into the 21st century, offering a bold and innovative portrait of a woman we all thought we knew.

Reviews
'Marcus died before her Cunard study was polished for publication - a task completed by her former student and now established literary scholar, Jean Mills. Mills uncovered notes, computer files, scribbles, and hints left by Marcus to assemble this unusual presentation of Nancy Cunard's stunning bohemian creativity... This is not a biography of Cunard. Editor Jean Mills points to works by Anne Chisholm and Hugh Ford for a chronological presentation of Cunard's life. Instead, Marcus' contribution clarifies the significance of Cunard's seemingly chaotic life and work to both modernism and Black culture.' Sandi E. Cooper, The Coordinating Council for Women in History, 'As she did for Woolf, Marcus re-radicalizes Cunard and unveils her as the force that she was. In the process, Marcus also channels her own force and power into the work. Perfect Stranger reverberates with Marcus's signature voice: bold, uncompromising, fierce, unflinching, and brilliant.' J. Ashley Foster, Virginia Woolf Miscellany, "As she did for Woolf, Marcus re-radicalizes Cunard and unveils her as the force that she was. In the process, Marcus also channels her own force and power into the work. Perfect Stranger reverberates with Marcus's signature voice: bold, uncompromising, fierce, unflinching, and brilliant." J. Ashley Foster, Virginia Woolf Miscellany, 'Marcus died before her Cunard study was polished for publication - a task completed by her former student and now established literary scholar, Jean Mills.

Cooper, The Coordinating Council for Women in History, '[The book] provides new readings of [Cunard's] work and her role in transatlantic modernism. [...] Marcus takes new comparative approaches for understanding Cunard's contribution [and] interest in her work continues to grow. Marcus' passionate defence of Cunard will further energize these discussions.' Mercedes Aguirre, Times Literary Supplement, '[The book] provides new readings of [Cunard's] work and her role in transatlantic modernism... Marcus takes new comparative approaches for understanding Cunard's contribution [and] interest in her work continues to grow. Marcus' passionate defence of Cunard will further energize these discussions.' Mercedes Aguirre, Times Literary Supplement, 'The book is a tour de force in its scope and forensic detail. Marcus exhaustively mined all available archives--letters, diaries, photographs, scrapbooks, and typescript drafts--as well as personal testimonies, conferences, and seminars held in several countries and continents over several decades. Following her death in 2015, Jean Mills brought Marcus's drafts to completion with the confidence of her close collaborations with the author over many years. Mills offers an insightful introduction, afterword, and advocacy for the endnotes as both complementary and self-standing rich resources.' Jane Dowson, Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature
