- Abstract
- A literary criticism of the book "The Gift," by H.D. is presented. The author discusses the contrast of war with everyday life in literature and the depiction of war by women authors. She comments how the book, a memoir of H.D.'s experiences during the bombing of London, England in World War II, illustrates H.D.'s concepts of creativity and psychological healing.
