University of Cambridge: May Wedderburn Cannan, Poet and Mi5 Employee in Wwi

Curated by ACT

May Wedderburn Cannan was a poet and writer - and also, during the the First World War, an employee of MI5. In these extracts from her autobiography, Grey Ghosts and Voices, Cannan remembers what it was like to be a poet in war time - and what it was like to be one of the 'surplus two million' after the war.
