The original Writers and their Work series was launched by the British Council over 30 years ago to make available brief but expert and rigorous critical examinations of the works of distinguished writers and schools of writing.

After being relaunched in association with Northcote House Publishers, the new series reflects recent developments in critical theory and places the subjects in their cultural, social and political contexts.

The books are accessible and clearly written, each with an extensive and up-to-date bibliography. They are aimed at upper secondary and undergraduate students and their teachers in the UK and overseas, and are also suitable for the general reader.

For individual Writers and Their Work titles please see our book club website encompassculture, under the booklists section, there you will find a list of Writers and Their Work titles.
