This episode is about representations of Poland in interwar British literature. Juliette Bretan, a PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge, discusses the Polish landscape, Polish characters, and Polishness, as well as the use of Poland to comment on politics, history, and identity in works that include D.H. Lawrence's The Rainbow (1915), T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land (1922), Evelyn Waugh's Decline and Fall (1928), Martin Hare's Polonaise (1939), and stories by Joseph Conrad.
