"Equally talented as a writer and a painter Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957) was one of the most innovative and controversial figures of the twentieth-century British art scene, famous as the driving force behind Vorticism, the avant-garde movement that flourished in London before the First World War. This book - the first critical overview of the visual, literary and philosophical dimensions of Lewis's work - is also the first study to consider them as an integrated whole.". "Through accessible commentary accompanied by a large selection of colour and black and white illustrations Paul Edwards traces a coherent pattern in Lewis's bafflingly diverse work, and shows its centrality to a full understanding of Modernism."--BOOK JACKET.
