  Kate O'Brien's work is widely considered canonical in the English language. O'Brien's novel, Mary Lavalle , banned upon publication in 1936, is a key work of the 20th century that has suffered from critical neglect. This book examines Mary Lavalle , exploring its role in the modernist canon and its importance to political and queer activism.
