Mary and Mr Eliot by Mary Trevelyan

Eliot - and of its author, a formidable woman sidelined by literary history. 'Heartbreaking and wonderfully told.' Susan Hill, Spectator Books of the Year 'Compelling ...

Mary Trevelyan (1881-1966) spent a lifetime committed to the promotion of internationalism and peaceful cooperation - especially between young people and students. Trevelyan became the Warden of the Student Movement House in Russell Square in 1938. All her life she remained deeply involved in charitable works and her published works are two remarkable memoirs, From the Ends of the Earth and I'll Walk Beside You: Letters from Belgium, September 1944-May 1945. From 1938 to 1957 she was a close friend and companion of T.S. Eliot, a period about which she wrote in her unpublished manuscript, The Pope of Russell Square.

Erica Wagner is an author and critic.

Literary editor of The Times for 17 years, she is now a contributing writer for the New Statesman, consulting literary editor for Harper's Bazaar and Lead Editorial Innovator for Creatd, Inc.
