Synopsis

Once again available, Dalkey Archive's edition of the four books of lost British modernist Olive Moore (born around 1905, believed to have died around 1970) includes three novels, Celestial Seraglio, a wicked account of coming of age in a Belgian convent school; Spleen, about a woman who goes into self-imposed exile in Italy after giving birth to a deformed child; and Fugue, the story of a clever newspaper woman, pregnant and unmarried, suffocating amidst the English expatriate intelligentsia. The fourth book, The Apple Is Bitten Again (1934) is a dazzling and disturbing collection of observations and aphorisms on modern civilization and art.
