The London Mercury, Volume I collects the first six numbers of the influential literary review founded by J. C. Squire in 1919. The magazine published poetry, fiction, criticism, and commentary on the arts, and quickly became a leading organ of literary opinion in post-war Britain, championing certain currents of contemporary writing.
This bound first volume preserves a substantial body of the period’s verse, essays, and reviews, including notes on the visual arts. It is a valuable source for the literary and cultural history of the early twentieth century. This free EPUB download is cleanly formatted for any e-reader.
