Menna Gallie

Menna Patricia Humphreys Gallie (18 March 1919 – 17 June 1990) was a Welsh-speaking Welsh novelist, translator and public speaker. She was a life-long Labour Party activist. But she rejected feminism because she felt that it was ideologically hidebound. And she was cool towards what she perceived as 'the more insistent parts' of its second-wave. Gallie is best known for her novels in the English language and as the first translator into English of the Welsh language novel Un Nos Ola Leuad by Caradog Prichard, the Welsh poet and novelist, as Full Moon (1973).
