Improvements to Londons over ground and underground rail network, including large scale electrification were progressively carried out. During World War I, London experienced its first bombing raids carried out by German zeppelin airships; These air raids in total killed around 670 people, injured 1,960 and caused great terror among Londons population. A far bigger impact was of the number of Londoners who were killed in combat; about 124,000 young men never returned from the war. Basic religious and political beliefs were questioned by more people.

The Communist Party of Great Britain won a seat in the House of Commons, and the far-right British Union of Fascists received extensive support. Clashes between right and left culminated in the Battle of Cable Street in 1936 Large numbers of Jewish immigrants fleeing from Nazi Germany settled in London during the 1930s, who settled mostly in the West End

SOCIAL CHANGE Variously throughout the war, serious shortage of able-bodied men ("manpower") occurred in the country, and women were required to take on many of the traditional male roles, particularly in the area of arms manufacture The number of women employed by the service increased from 33,000 in 1911 to over 102,000 by 1921 In February 1916, groups were set up and a campaign started to get women to help in agriculture and in March 1917, the Womens Land Army was set up, though crucially, its members were paid less than their male counterparts The war also caused a split in the British suffragette movement, with the mainstream, represented by Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughter Christabels Womens Social and Political Union Women were also allowed to join the armed forces in a non-combatant role[7] and by the end of World War I, 80,000 women had joined the armed forces in auxiliary roles such as nursing and cooking.

Scott Fitzgerald said, "Id rather have written Nostromo than any other novel."
  • 14. Chamber music is a form of classical music, written for a small group of instruments which traditionally could be accommodated in a palace chamber. Most broadly, it includes any art music that is performed by a small number of performers with one performer to a part. The word "chamber" signifies that the music can be performed in a small room, often in a private salon with an intimate atmosphere. However, it usually does not include, by definition, solo instrument performances.
  • 15. The Rainbow is a 1915 novel by British author D. H. Lawrence. It follows three generations of the Brangwen family living in Nottinghamshire,[2] particularly focusing on the sexual dynamics of, and relations between, the characters. Lawrences frank treatment of sexual desire and the power it plays within relationships as a natural and even spiritual force of life, though perhaps tame by modern standards, caused The Rainbow to be prosecuted in an obscenity trial in late 1915, as a result of which all copies were seized and burnt. After this ban it was unavailable in Britain for 11 years, although editions were available in the
  • 16. Orlando: A Biography is an influential novel by Virginia Woolf, first published on 11 October 1928. A semi- biographical novel based in part on the life of Woolfs lover Vita Sackville-West, it is generally considered one of Woolfs most accessible novels. The novel has been influential stylistically, and is considered important in literature generally, and particularly in the history of womens writing and gender studies. A film adaptation was released in 1992, starring Tilda Swinton as Orlando and Quentin Crisp as Queen Elizabeth I.
  • 17. Brave New World is Aldous Huxleys fifth novel, written in 1931 and published in 1932. Set in London of AD 2540 (632 A.F. in the book), the novel anticipates developments in reproductive technology and sleep-learning that combine to change society. The future society is an embodiment of the ideals that form the basis of futurology. Huxley answered this book with a reassessment in an essay, Brave New World Revisited (1958), summarised below, and with his final work, a novel titled Island (1962). In 1999, the Modern Library ranked Brave New World fifth on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century.[1]
  • 18. Crome Yellow is the first novel by British author Aldous Huxley. It was published in 1921. In the book, Huxley satirises the fads and fashions of the time. It is the witty story of a house party at "Crome"[1] (a lightly veiled reference to Garsington Manor, a house where authors such as Huxley and T. S. Eliot used to gather and write). We hear the history of the house from Henry Wimbush, its owner and self-appointed historian; apocalypse is prophesied, virginity is lost, and inspirational aphorisms are gained in a trance. Our hero, Denis Stone, tries to capture it all in poetry and is disappointed in love.
  • 19. Decline and Fall is a novel by the English author Evelyn Waugh, first published in 1928. It was Waughs first published novel; an earlier attempt, entitled The Temple at Thatch, was destroyed by Waugh while still in manuscript form. Decline and Fall is based in part on Waughs undergraduate years at Hertford College, Oxford, and his experience as a teacher in Wales. It is a social satire that employs the authors characteristic black humour in lampooning various features of British society in the 1920s.
  • 20. King Solomons Mines (1885) is a popular novel by the Victorian adventure writer and fabulist Sir H. Rider Haggard. It tells of a search of an unexplored region of Africa by a group of adventurers led by Allan Quatermain for the missing brother of one of the party. It is the first English adventure novel set in Africa, and is considered to be the genesis of the Lost World literary genre.
  • 21. The Prisoner of Zenda is an adventure novel by Anthony Hope, published in 1894. The king of the fictional country of Ruritania is drugged on the eve of his coronation and thus unable to attend his own coronation. Political forces are such that in order for the king to retain his crown his coronation must go forward. An English gentleman on holiday who fortuitously resembles the monarch, is persuaded to act as his political decoy in an attempt to save the situation. The villainous Rupert of Hentzau gave his name to the sequel published in 1898, which is included in some editions of this novel. The books were extremely popular and inspired a new genre of Ruritanian romance, including the Graustark novels by George Barr McCutcheon.
  • 22. Goodbye to Berlin is a 1939 short novel by Christopher Isherwood set in pre-Nazi Germany. It is often published together with Mr Norris Changes Trains in a collection called The Berlin Stories. Liza of Lambeth (1897) was W. Somerset Maughams first novel, which he wrote while working as a doctor at a hospital in Lambeth, then a working class district of London. It depicts the short life and death of Liza Kemp, an 18-year-old factory worker who lives together with her aging mother in Vere Street (obviously fictional) off Westminster Bridge Road (real) in Lambeth. All in all, it gives the reader an interesting insight into the everyday lives of working class Londoners at the turn of the century.
  • 23. The Man With Two Left Feet, and Other Stories is a collection of short stories by P. G. Wodehouse, first published in the United Kingdom on March 8, 1917 by Methuen & Co., London, and in the United States in 1933 by A.L. Burt and Co., New York. All the stories had previously appeared in periodicals, usually the Strand in the UK and the Red Book magazine or the Saturday Evening Post in the US. It is a fairly miscellaneous collection most of the stories concern relationships, sports and household pets, and do not feature any of Wodehouses regular characters; one, however, "Extricating Young Gussie", is notable for the first appearance in print of two of Wodehouses best-known characters, Jeeves and his master Bertie Wooster (although Berties surname isnt given and Jeevess role is very small), and Berties fearsome Aunt Agatha. Most of the thirteen stories in this collection portray interactions among pension guests in a German spa town; a few represent the lives of the towns permanent residents. The minor health problems (mostly digestive ailments, or unspecified "internal complaints") of the guests are not the crux of the plot but rather what gives it its texture. Talk about eating, "internal complaints," sexuality, body image, and pregnancy is the vehicle through which people try to relate.
