Varied correspondence ordered by surnames A-S, 1919-1982

Collection: Communism and Popular Culture in the 20th Century    Volumes    Varied correspondence ordered by surnames A-S, 1919-1982

A substantial quantity of this correspondence took place during the Second World War. For this reason, it includes references to rationing, the invasion of the Soviet Union, and the CPGB's war policy. Montagu's writings also come to the fore in an uncorrected script and in reviews of his work, including by part leader Harry Pollitt. Montagu corresponded with George Bernard Shaw on the subject of film censorship and with scholars on the subject of George Bernard Shaw. Montagu enjoyed a more jovial relationship with H. G. Wells as they agreed "a holiday from agreeing to disagree as we do should provide light exercise and entertainment."
