PRIESTLEY, Margaret

PRIESTLEY, Margaret
(?1919-)
   UK writer who, with Meriol TREVOR, created in childhood an ALTERNATE WORLD called the World Dionysius, where both set several novels. MP's were The Ring of Fortune * (1948), The Three Queens * (1950) and Tomay is Loyal * (1951). They were marginally less effective than Trevor's, though both authors had a tendency to fall back on RURITANIAN conventions when more radical displacements might have generated a more sustained sequence.
