Items related to Stained Radiance: A Fictionist's Prelude
Lewis Grassic Gibbon (writing under his real name James Leslie Mitchell) has sketched the lives of ordinary people living through the Jazz Age and the troubled sexuality of the times.
A transparently autobiographical work, Stained Radiance offers an insight into Gibbon's development as a writer and political thinker and contains in Thea Mayven the most obvious prefiguring of Chris Guthrie, heroine of the Scots Quair trilogy.
Thea, a girl from the Mearns, shares a London flat with the ruthlessly promiscuous Norah Casement and with a young milliner, Ellen Ledgeworth. The novel follows the relationships of the three young women (and an older, wealthier woman, the dilettantishly political Mrs. Gayford) with four men. Thea is involved with a young Air Force clerk, and would-be-writer, John Garland, presumably Mitchell himself.
