Counter-Currents
Bill Hopkins (May 5, 1928–May 6, 2011) was a Welsh novelist and critic who made his living dealing in art and antiques. Associated with the so-called Angry Young Men literary group of the 1950s, Hopkins was a thinker of the Right, notable for his friendships with Colin Wilson and Jonathan Bowden. Over the years, Counter-Currents has published a number of pieces by and about Hopkins, and we would welcome more recollections of his life and influence as well as reprints and analyses of his writings.
