Sylvia Townsend Warner was a highly individual writer of novels, short stories and poems. She contributed short stories to the New Yorker for more than forty years, translated Proust's Contre Saint-Beuve into English, wrote a biography of the novelist T.H.White and a guide to Somerset. ([Source][1].) Here's the Townsend Warner's bibliography for her: http://www.townsendwarner.com/bibliography.php I wonder if Open Library can match it!
