Bombay to Bloomsbury : a biography of the Strachey family Barbara Caine Published by Oxford University Press (2005) |
Book description
The Stracheys were an exceptionally intelligent and unusual family. Prominent
in imperial administration, science, and feminism in the nineteenth century, and
in the suffrage movement, women's education, and the bringing of new approaches
to sexuality in the twentieth century, they had a wide and significant
influence. Examining Lytton Strachey, his parents and nine siblings, Barbara
Caine provides a fascinating picture of a diverse and complex family in a period
of change from Victorian England to the beat generation.
