ABSTRACT

Sinclair (1870-1946) was an English novelist and a good friend of Pound's. She is the author of an early, sympathetic note on Imagism in the Egoist (1 June 1915) and an article on Prufrock in the Little Review (December 1917). Walter Allen in The English Novel (Penguin ed., 1965, p. 345), attributes the first use of the phrase 'stream of consciousness' to a review by May Sinclair of Dorothy Richardson in 1918.
