Woolf's last and most lyrical novel, a playful study on the merging of art and life
Virginia Woolf was born in London in 1882, the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen, first editor of The Dictionary of National Biography. From 1915, when she published her first novel, The Voyage Out, Virginia Woolf maintained an astonishing output of fiction, literary criticism, essays and biography. In 1912 she married Leonard Woolf, and in 1917 they founded The Hogarth Press. Virginia Woolf suffered a series of mental breakdowns throughout her life, and on 28 March 1941 she committed suicide.
'Woolf was an innovator who redefined the novel and pointed the way
towards its future possibilities.' Jeanette Winterson
'Virginia Woolf stands as the chief figure of modernism in England
andmust be included with Joyce and Proust in the realisation
ofexperimental achievements that have completely broken with
tradition' New York Times
