Virginia Woolf: A Writer's Life

"[T]he most informative, most nearly definitive, most judicious word on this major, modern writer."—Scott Elledge
"[M]easured, and brave in its imaginative interpretations."—Carolyn Heilbrun, The New York Times Book Review This "original, intuitive, and even exciting" (The New Yorker) portrait highlights the experiences that shaped Virginia Woolf's life and art—her childhood, her relationships with her father and sister, her marriage, and her descents into madness.
