- Biografía breve
- Helen Noble Thomas was born in Liverpool, England, the daughter of James Ashcroft Noble, a journalist and literary critic, and his wife Esther. Her father wrote for The Spectator and moved the family to London in 1880. Helen and her sisters were educated at Wintersdorf School, an exclusive private girls' school in Southport, Lancashire. After leaving school, she worked as a nursery governess in Rotherfield. In 1896, she met the poet and novelist Edward Thomas, and the couple married and had three children. Helen taught at Bedales, a progressive co-educational boarding school in Hampshire. In 1915, during World War I, Edward Thomas enlisted in the army, and was later transferred to the Royal Artillery. He began writing war poems, but only a few were published before he was killed at Arras in 1917. After the war, Helen Thomas wrote two acclaimed memoirs of their life together, As It Was (1926) and World Without End (1931). These were reprinted in a single volume in 1988 as Under Storm’s Wing, with a selection of other short works by Helen and her daughter Myfanwy Thomas, and six letters from Edward Thomas's friend Robert Frost. Helen's other short memoir, My Memory of W. H. Davies, was published posthumously in 1973.
