Description
This book reassesses representations of the unconscious in the early twentieth century, primarily the works of D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf and T.S. Eliot, authors who engaged the notion of the intelligent unconscious, reworked it and offered it for the consumption of the general populace.
Shortlisted for the Modernist Studies Association (MSA) First Book Prize and for the 2021 British Society for Literature and Science Book Prize.
"This is an exciting study, offering fresh and challenging readings of Lawrence, Woolf, and others who not only wrote about but also theorised modules of intelligent unconscious." (British Society of Literature and Science)
