The Community Design Assistance Center (CDAC) assisted in this endeavor by identifying key destination points and proposing a concept plan for trail linkages

    No country for old maids? Housing Ivy Compton-Burnett’s mid-century fiction

    No full text
    This chapter examines the challenges and pleasures of reading the unsentimental and stubbornly strange post-1945 fiction of Ivy Compton-Burnett. While numerous journalists and scholars have interpreted her writing as having very few obvious literary ancestors or successors, Radford proposes that Compton-Burnett provides a radical reimagining of the “country-house novel”, synonymous with male authors like Henry James, E. M. Forster, Ford Madox Ford and Evelyn Waugh. Radford uses her 1947 novel Manservant and Maidservant to scrutinize Compton-Burnett’s distinctive contribution to this “country-house” tradition, especially her satirical debunking of post-war patriarchal values and nostalgic fantasies of Englishness
