About this listen

 The Blue Review was a brief yet vibrant monthly journal launched in London from May to July 1913. Serving as the successor to Rhythm, it was edited by the talented duo of John Middleton Murry and Katherine Mansfield, but unfortunately lasted for only three issues. This eclectic publication featured a rich mix of poetry, short stories, and insightful critiques of theatre, music, and the arts, alongside reviews of notable books released in both English and French. The inaugural issue includes D. H. Lawrences captivating short story, The Soiled Rose, which later found new life as Shades of Spring. - Summary by Phil BensonCopyright Short Stories Art Literary History & Criticism
