ALLOTT, Kenneth
(1912-1973)
   UK writer best known for his distinguished and melancholy poetry, which was assembled in Collected Poems (coll 1975). The Rhubarb Tree (1937), with Stephen Tait, is one of several 1930s novels predicting a fascist government in the UK. Jules Verne (1940) is a fluent study, free of the usual literary condescensions.
