First edition

I Live Under a Black Sun is a novelized biography of Jonathan Swift by poet Edith Sitwell.[1] Her debut novel, it is a modernist work, and was published in 1937, straddling her productive period of poetry in the 1920s and the 1940s.[1][2] Though primarily biographical fiction, it includes thematic treatments on mourning and melancholia, and political allegory.[1]

The novel was the first to be published with Victor Gollancz, after leaving her former publisher Duckworth.[2] At the time of its publication, the novel did not receive much critical acclaim.[3] However, contemporary writers, including Evelyn Waugh and Edwin Muir found the novel successful.[4]
