Am I an Irishwoman?
- 09 October 2006
Taken from the New Statesman archive, 5 November 1965
Brophy (1929-95) was a frequent contributor to the New Statesman in this period. Not long ago she would have needed no introduction: a novelist and critic, she was also a campaigner for human rights, animal rights and the rights of authors. For 20 years and more she was continually in the public eye, until in the 1980s she contracted multiple sclerosis. Her reputation may be due a revival. The husband
she mentions is the art historian Sir Michael Levey.
