In the years before the First World War, a collection of writers and artists began to make a name for themselves in England and America for their irreverent spirit and provocative works of literature, art, and criticism. They called themselves the Bloomsbury Group and by the 1920s, they were at the height of their influence. Then a new generation stepped forward—creative young people who tantalized their elders with their captivating looks, bold ideas, and subversive energy. The group had always celebrated sexual equality and freedom in private, feeling that every person had the right to live and love in the way they chose. But as transgressive self-expression became more public, this younger generation gave Old Bloomsbury a new voice. Join us when Nino Strachey discuss her book, Young Bloomsbury which celebrates an open way of living and loving that would not be embraced for another hundred years, on this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large.
