The writer Anna Kavan has been compared to Doris Lessing, Virginia Woolf and Kafka.
Her admirers included Anais Nin and JG Ballard, yet few people today have heard of her or her books.
She was a long term heroin addict and suffered bouts of mental illness and these themes are reflected in her work.
This month some of her books have been revived and reissued.
Martha is joined by the broadcaster and writer Virginia Ironside and publisher Peter Owen, to discuss one of Britain's most enigmatic writers.
