Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf was born in 1882, the youngest daughter of the Victorian writer Leslie Stephen. After her father's death, Virginia moved with her sister Vanessa (later Vanessa Bell) and two of her brothers, to 46 Gordon Square, which was to be the first meeting place of the Bloomsbury Group. Virginia married Leonard Woolf in 1912, and together they established the Hogarth Press. Virginia also published her first novel, The Voyage Out, in 1912, and she subsequently wrote eight more, several of which are considered classics, as well as two books of seminal feminist thought. Woolf suffered from mental illness throughout her life and committed suicide in 1941.

Reviews for Virginia Woolf

[monicariascos1062 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

A very honest and often painful reminiscing, a looking back at childhood and youth, family and social dynamics... it is true that the greatest writers carry withing themselves the greatest sufferings. It seems that these painful, so often shameful experiences, make fertile soil for literary creations... A very good read that gives you a deep insight into the lives of women of that time.
