This issue features the first publication of the original ending of Jean Rhys' 1934 novel Voyage in the Dark, according to Andrew Thacker's article 'Texts and Editions of Jean Rhys: Another Voyage in the Dark?' published in Women: a cultural review. The extract featured in this magazine issue is introduced by Nancy Hemond Brown. Brown wrote many insightful critical essays and articles on the work of the novelist Jean Rhys (1890-1979) who is best known for Wide Sargasso Sea. In Voyage in the Dark, Rhys explores her characteristic theme of the alienation of mistreated women, based on her personal experiences.
