ABOUT US

The International Rebecca West Society was founded in 2003, by Bernard Schweizer, a West scholar, Helen Macleod Atkinson, West's grand niece, and Carl Rollyson, a West biographer.

The society exists to encourage and create interest in this magnificent twentieth-century writer, and hopes to attract a diverse audience: scholars who work in literature, history, politics, philosophy, journalism, and women's studies; critics who write for academic and popular audiences; and readers who want to experience a great polemical thinker and extraordinary stylist. We hope to foster conversation among all people interested in her work, and to make her name and works better known.
