The Sitwells (Edith Sitwell, Osbert Sitwell, Sacheverell Sitwell), from Scarborough, North Yorkshire, were three siblings, who formed an identifiable literary and artistic clique around themselves in London in the period roughly 1916 to 1930. This was marked by some well-publicised events, notably Edith's ''Façade'' with music by William Walton, with its public debut in 1923. All three Sitwells wrote; for a while their circle was considered by some to rival Bloomsbury, though others dismissed them as attention-seekers rather than serious artists. ==''Wheels'' anthologies== The first Sitwell venture was the series of ''Wheels'' anthologies produced from 1916. These were seen either as a counterweight to the contemporary Edward Marsh ''Georgian Poetry'' anthologies, or as light 'society verse' collections. They did not really match the Imagist anthologies of the same years, or the modernist wing, in terms of finding poets with important careers ahead of them, but included both Nancy Cunard and Aldous Huxley. ;Wheels 1916 *Nancy Cunard *Arnold James *V.
