Close attention is paid to Warner’s literary achievement in Wendy Mulford’s groundbreaking This Narrow Place<\/i>, an experiment in dual critical biography that traces Warner’s thirty-nine-year romantic and literary partnership with the would-be poet Valentine Ackland. Mulford’s study concentrates on the lovers’ political involvement in the 1930s and 1940s, the decades during which both women joined the Communist Party, travelled to Spain to support the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War, and, at home in rural Norfolk and Dorset, deplored the desperate conditions of agricultural labor.<\/div>\n
