criticises the 'remarkable, almost cocksure certainty' of her discussion of the pro-Nazis who formed what she called a first generation of traitors. 27. John K. Hutchens, 'Rebecca West, Novelist and Great Reporter', New York Herald Tribune Book Review, 22 Apr 1956, p. 2. 28.

Leslie Garis, 'Rebecca West',New York Times Magazine (4Apr 1982) VI, p. 30. This article is remarkable on several counts: it contains interviews with both Rebecca West and Anthony West; it connects Rebecca West's strong sympathies for capitalism and royalty with her marriage; and it points out that Gordon Ray's edition of the Wells letters presents a consistently one-sided view of the Wells-West relationship. (Garis also interviewed Ray, who gave no satisfactory reason for failing to interview Anthony West while preparing the materials for his book, but denied that he had not done so at Dame Rebecca's request.) Garis's account of the well-rehearsed moments of emotionalism at any mention of either Wells or her son will seem familiar to any visitor to the Kensington flat near Prince's Gate. 35. Hicks, in Life, LXI, p. 62. 36. Marina Warner, 'The Art of Fiction- LXV: Rebecca West', Paris Review, vol. 79 (1981) p. 128. 37. Ibid., p. 150. 38. Rebecca West's will, made public in May 1983, disposed of an estate valued at £772,353 gross, £762,511 net. Most of it - including her literary copyrights - went to her nephew, Dr Norman Macleod, a research scientist at Edinburgh University. The Daily Telegraph reported that Anthony West had apparently been excluded from the will. Anthony West's attitude toward his mother is recorded in two recent publications: an autobiographical essay prefixed to Heritage, printed by Secker and Warburg and distributed in the UK for the first time in 1984, with an autobiographical essay; and H. G. Wells, published by Hutchinson in 1984. The latter book, a full-scale biography, relates the Wells-West romance to other affairs in Wells's life and to a transient affair (1924-8) with the American journalist John Gunther in Rebecca West's life.

The standard bibliography remains George Evelyn Hutchinson's A Preliminary List ojthe Writings ojRebecca West, 1912-1951 (New Haven, Conn.: Yale University Library, 1957), though it needs updating. An admirable work of scholarship, it lists books and pamphlets, contributions to volumes of composite authorship, articles in periodicals, translations of works by Rebecca West, dramatisations, two titles 'announced but not published' and opera spuria. Some gaps remain to be filled even for the years prior to 1951. More selective, but more useful for the last quarter century, is the bibliogra• phy printed in Rebecca West: A Celebration, selected from her writings, with a critical introduction by Samuel Hynes (London: Macmillan, 1977) pp. 761-7. To Professor Hutchinson's categories are added lists of books, articles, and reviews on Rebecca West's works. The following list identifies all books written by Rebecca West, and provides publishing data.
