Bid Me to Live

“Scholars and students alike will turn to Caroline Zilboorg’s edition of H.D.’s Bid Me to Live for an introduction that provides heretofore unavailable insights and annotations that elucidate the book’s countless literary and biblical allusions. A useful, thorough, and eloquent study.”—Michel W. Pharand, author of Bernard Shaw and the French

“Zilboorg’s introduction and notes are excellent, thorough, and accurate—the work of an unparalleled expert in the field. This edition makes a major contribution to H.D. and modernist studies.”—Jane Augustine, editor of H.D.’s The Mystery

“Demonstrates an avant-garde mode of writing about the Great War, depicting the experience of non-combatants. Zilboorg’s excellent critical edition will help introduce this fascinating, much underrated modernist text to a new readership.”—Modern Language Review

“Bid Me to Live is [H.D.’s] finest and most moving novel, and Caroline Zilboorg’s elegant new scholarly edition is a timely reminder of why she was acclaimed for her sinuous prose, which wrestles compellingly with the fault lines of gender, sexuality and psychology.”—Women: A Cultural Review
