Mary Chapman’s (UBC) book Making Noise, Making News: Suffrage Print Culture and U.S. Modernism, which treats the suffragist engagements of canonical authors such as Gertrude Stein, Marianne Moore, and Sui Sin Far, as well as less canonical, middlebrow authors such as Alice Duer Miller and Elizabeth Jordan, is now available through Oxford UP. Ann Ardis calls it a “bold and beautifully written study [that] recovers the rich history of American suffragists’ literary and periodical press provocations, challenging modernist historiographies that have either actively erased or simply ignored the ‘deep affinities’ between suffragist and avant-garde experimentalism in the U.S….A must-read for anyone interested in the print media ecology of both modernism and modernity.”
