Hilary Bailey (19 September 1936 – 19 January 2017) was a British writer, critic and editor.
Life
Bailey attended
Newnham College, Cambridge , where she was a founder-member of the Cambridge University Women's Union.
[1] She was born in
Bromley ,
Kent .
Her books include Polly Put the Kettle On , Mrs Mulvaney , Hannie Richards and All the Days of My Life , with a heroine who suffers the fate of all women who step away from what is expected of them. She wrote a biography of
Vera Brittain , and sequels to
Jane Eyre and
The Turn of the Screw , a novel called Miles and Flora , which takes place some time after the original and resurrects one of the main characters. Bailey reviewed chiefly for
The Guardian , was active in the so-called New Wave of science fiction and edited volumes 7–10 of the
New Worlds Quarterly series, and was coauthor of
The Black Corridor (1969) with
Michael Moorcock , to whom she was married from 1962 to 1978 and associated with until the 1980s.
[2]
[3] Two of Bailey's science fiction short stories appeared in anthologies edited by Terry Carr. The anthology titles are On Our Way to the Future
[4] (1970) and Universe 5
[5] (1974). She was a prominent and much-anthologised writer associated with the science fiction New Wave.
She was editing North Sea Island , the sequel to her dystopian novel Fifty-First State when she died.
Bailey had three children with Michael Moorcock, Sophie, Kate and Max, as well as three grandchildren Alex, Tom and Bobby.
