"[Woolf's] essays...are lighter and easier than her fiction, and they exude information and pleasure....

Her well-stocked, academic, masculine mind is the ideal flint for the steel of her uncanny intuitions to strike on" (Cyril Connolly, New Yorker).Adeline Virginia Woolf (25 January 1882⁰́₄28 March 1941) was an English writer, and one of the foremost modernists of the twentieth century.

14 editions published between 1989 and 1992 in English and held by 155 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Cambridge scholar, colonial civil servant, author, journalist, editor, publisher, and political adviser to the Labour Party, Leonard Woolf had a long and varied career documented by a rich correspondence. Although overshadowed by the worldwide fascination with his wife, Virginia, he was in his own right a notable figure in intellectual circles and an integral part of the Bloomsbury group. The 600 letters in this volume begin in 1901 during Woolf's undergraduate years and end shortly before his death in 1969. Arranged thematically, they not only highlight his principal activities but also provide a virtual retrospective of literacy and political developments in Britain over half a century"--Back cover
