Forty Years On by Doreen Wallace

 

Probably the only post-apocalyptic dystopian novel ever to be set in the Isle of Ely.

 

Before I start on my travels, I will write a short account of my life before and after the cataclysm, for the interest of students of history in the Isle; for we are still fully educated and there is no reason why literacy should perish. (opening sentence)

 

Forty Years On was published in 1958. It is set after a nuclear war. The year is 1960, and the Russians have bombed England. The city of Ely and part of the Isle have survived, but are now completely cut off from the rest of the world by the flooded, radioactive Fens. The narrator records the birth and growth of a new kind of society in the Isle, culminating in the year 2000 when, as an old man, he sets off on horseback to discover what has happened to the rest of England.

 

I first became interested in Doreen Wallace's books after researching the Suffolk fascist Ronald Creasy, who had been elected as the British Union of Fascists councillor for Eye shortly before the Second World War. The Blackshirts were very strong along the Suffolk/Norfolk border, not least because of the local resentment at the Church of England imposing tithes, a kind of production tax, on farmers.

 

Doreen Rash (Wallace was her maiden name) was the wife of a farmer at Wortham, Suffolk. She had been born in Cumbria in 1897, became a supporter of the suffragette movement and was a brilliant scholar at Oxford, but her friends were dismayed when she married Roland Rash and moved to a remote East Anglian village. However, during her life she would publish fifty-four books, forty-five of which were novels.

 

The Rashes owned a farm which was subject to heavy Church of England tithes, but in common with many local small landowners they were non-conformists. The local Conservatives, always strong in East Anglia, supported the Church, and so without any political voice the Rashes and others took the law into their own hands. They withheld their tithes and were taken to court.

 

The British Union of Fascists took up the tithe-withholders' cause. They arrived in Suffolk to defend the farms by force against the bailiffs, who had to be recruited from the north of England as no local firms were prepared to take on the job. Famously, there was a standoff and a pitched battle between the police trying to impose the seizure of goods and the blackshirts defending the farms. Many blackshirts were arrested. A memorial to the battle still stands a few hundred yards to the west of Wortham church at the old entrance to Wortham Manor Farm.

 

Although not a prominent member of the British Union of Fascists, Doreen Wallace appeared on their platforms arguing against the tithes and seizures. Probably her most famous book, The Tithe War, was published by the left-wing Victor Gollancz press in 1934. Her activities, and those of another Norfolk-based writer and sympathiser with the blackshirts, Henry Williamson, author of Tarka the Otter, meant that there was much local enthusiasm, which contributed to Ronald Creasy being elected as a councillor.

 

In the years after the War, Wallace's novels were popular for their descriptions of East Anglian rural life, especially among the poor, and her sense of place, which owes more than a little to her champion Henry Williamson.

 

But as with Williamson, Doreen Wallace's national socialist political obsessions were not left behind in the 1930s. Again and again in her novels she railed against the power of International Money, which she saw as inimical to the lives of ordinary working people, and she regularly opposed organised religion as inadequate to convey the true transcendence of the divine, preferring a nature and land-based mysticism.

 

She attacked social inequalities faced by women, and although many of her books are romances they always feature strong women. And again and again, she described the harsh lives of the East Anglian rural poor.

 

Although Forty Years On owes something to Richard Jefferies' 1885 novel After London (Williamson was a great fan of Jefferies, and probably introduced Wallace to his work), the society she creates in a post-apocalyptic Isle of Ely has many echoes of Oswald Mosley's speeches and writings of the 1930s with its ideas about the need for authoritarian rule, eugenics, state corporatism and utopian socialism. As the poet Philip Larkin observed of his own father, Doreen Wallace was one of those people whom democracy did not suit.

 

Doreen Rash, née Wallace, died in Diss, Norfolk in October 1989 at the age of 92.

 

In recent years, Doreen Wallace has become something of a feminist icon, although I suspect some are wary because of her political activities and opinions, which have to some extent been suppressed, and sometimes her history has been rewritten. Her entry on the Norfolk Library Service's Norfolk Women in History site describes her defence of Wortham Manor Farm as a confrontation with local blackshirts.

For a contribution (amount your choice) Luke will write you a story. He types out stories for strangers on his old typewriter. Even if you don't want a story Luke has time to talk to everybody. I didn't get a story written but in exchange for this stranger portrait I gave Luke a polaroid version. Luke was excited about an up-coming trip to Andalucia to take in the sights and write some more stranger stories. I wonder if he'll write in Spanish.

 

this is #33 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page

LEAH GARCHIK writes in the San Francisco Chronicle: 'I am informed by ADDA DADA , who never misses a party, that the winner of the Hunky Jesus Contest was TWERKING JESUS. And "Why carry your cross when you can ride it?" is what REBECCA ZITO when she spotted a cyclist so accessorized.'

www.sfgate.com/entertainment/garchik/article/Dancing-in-t... ............................................................................................SISTER's of PERPETUAL INDULGENCE's 35th Annual HUNKY JESUS & FOXY MARY fun....The best thing about the Sister's show were the Marijuana 4/20 folks who incorrectly wandered into the Sister's party space...They were like "OMG, This is like , OZ, man."

  

Yes, it was.

 

Probably because it was the Sister's 35th Anniversary and it was an homage to the Wizard of Oz. The lawn in front of the stage was filled with red-paper poppies. There were several 'Cowardly Lions", many "Glenda the Good Witch", a couple of 'Bad Witches" including one on a bike...a very young 6-year old Judy Garland passing out Giradelli Chocolate, an awesome Scarecrow of indeterminate sex, a few Tin Men (and one obviously Tin Woman), and even a couple of 'munchkins'...yes, real little people. Though, ADDA DADA is happy to report that there were no Flying Monkeys.

 

THANK YOU to all the beautiful adults who let ADDA take their photos! (Everyone was properly asked & everyone consented.)
