A pioneer of modern literature and a central figure in the Bloomsbury Group, Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) composed a masterful oeuvre of novels, essays and reviews. Her correspondence, central to her writing and to her life, is at once profound, restless, facetious and frivolous, and offers a colourful picture of English intellectual society at the time. Letters to her friends and loved ones show us a Virginia not in the grip of depression but full of life and benevolence.
