AUTHOR: May Sinclair (pseudo: Mary Amelia St. Clair 1863-1946), British writer of short stories and poetry. An active suffragist, and member of the Woman Writers Suffrage League. Critic of modernist poetry and prose, and attributed with first using the term stream of consciousness in a literary context. Born in Rock Ferry, Cheshire to a Liverpool shipowner, who went bankrupt, became an alcoholic, and died before she was an adult. Her mother was strict and religious. After one year of education at Cheltenham Ladies College, she acted as carer for her brother who were suffering from a fatal congenital heart disease. Career: From 1896 she wrote professionally, to support herself and her mother, who died in 1901. An active feminist, Sinclair wrote on themes relating to the position of women, and marriage. She also wrote non-fiction based on studies of philosophy, particularly German idealism. Around 1913, at the Medico-Psychological Clinic in London, she became interested in psychoanalytic thought, and introduced matter related to Sigmund Freuds teaching in her novels. In 1914, she volunteered to join the Munro Ambulance Corps, a charitable organization (which included Lady Dorothie Feilding, Elsie Knocker and Mairi Chisholm) that aided wounded Belgian soldiers on the Western Front in Flanders. She was sent home after only a few weeks at the front; she wrote about the experience. She reviewed in a positive light the poetry of T. S. Eliot (1917 in the Little Review) and the fiction of Dorothy Richardson (1918 in The Egoist). Sinclair was a believer in Spiritualism, and was also a member of the Society for Psychical Research from 1914. Sinclair wrote two volumes of supernatural fiction, Uncanny Stories (1923) and The Intercessor and Other Stories (1931). From the late 1920s she was suffering from the early signs of Parkinsons disease, and ceased writing. She settled with a companion in Buckinghamshire in 1932.…
