This essay collection scrutinizes a diverse array of modernist Anglophone women writers and their engagements with religion and spirituality. Considering canonical authors such as Virginia Woolf alongside less studied writers such as H.D., Mary Butts, Rose Macaulay, Stevie Smith and Evelyn Underhill, the volume fills a real gap in scholarship on modernism, spirituality and religion.
