An introduction to the work of Emyr Humphreys, one of Wales's leading writers, highlighting his impressive contribution to Welsh writing in the English language, and to contemporary critical and cultural agendas such as issues of identity, nation, feminism, environment and religious conflict.
Emyr Humphreys, born in 1919, is one of the most prolific and significant modern Welsh writers. Generally rooted in North Wales, his fiction provides fresh insights into modern Welsh history, nonconformity, and globalization. This pioneering book explores Humphreys’s work from a range of contemporary critical perspectives and stresses its relevance to the twenty-first century. Through readings that highlight such subjects as gender identity, familial relationships, war, pacifism, and otherness, Linden peach argues that Humphrey’s work is best understood as dramatic, dissident, or dilemma fiction.
