520 8 Annotation|bAs the study of travel writing has grown in
recent years, scholars have largely ignored the literature
of modernist writers. Modernist Travel Writing:
Intellectuals Abroad, by David Farley, addresses this gap
by examining the ways in which a number of writers
employed the techniques and stylistic innovations of
modernism in their travel narratives to variously engage
the political, social, and cultural milieu of the years
between the world wars. Modernist Travel Writingargues
that the travel book is a crucial genre for understanding
the development of modernism in the years between the wars,
despite the established view that travel writing during
the interwar period was largely an escapist genreone in
which writers hearkened back to the realism of nineteenth-
century literature in order to avoid interwar anxiety.
Farley analyzes works that exist on the margins of
modernism, generically and geographically, works that have
yet to receive the critical attention they deserve, partly
due to their classification as travel narratives and
partly because of their complex modernist styles. The book
begins by examining the ways that travel and the emergent
travel regulations in the wake of the First World War
helped shape Ezra PoundsCantos. From there, it goes on to
examine E.E. Cummingss frustrated attempts to navigate the
unworld of Soviet Russia in his bookEimi, Wyndham Lewiss
satiric journey through colonial Morocco inFilibusters in
Barbary, and Rebecca Wests urgent efforts to make sense of
the fractious Balkan states inBlack Lamb and Grey Falcon.
These modernist writers traveled to countries that
experienced most directly the tumult of revolution, the
effects of empire, and the upheaval of war during the
years between World War I and World War II. Farleys study
focuses on the question of what constitutes evidence for
Pound, Lewis, Cummings, and West as they establish their
authority as eyewitnesses, translate what they see for an
audience back home, and attempt to make sense of a
transformed and transforming modern world. Modernist
Travel Writingmakes an original contribution to the study
of literary modernism while taking a distinctive look at a
unique subset within the growing field of travel writing
studies. David Farleys work will be of interest to
students and teachers in both of these fields as well as
to early-twentieth-century literary historians and general
enthusiasts of modernist studies.
