Virginia Woolf Résumé

Virginia Woolf James Acheson

This collection of original essays on Virginia Woolf by leading scholars in the field opens up new debates on the work of one of the foremost modernists of the 20th century. The collection also looks at some of Woolf's own essays, discussing her theory of fiction and devotion to 'stream of consciousness' writing. Its thirteen contributors place this discussion of Woolf's artistic theory and practice within the context of her association with the Bloomsbury Group and her interest in spirituality, feminism, homosexuality, pacifism and psychoanalysis.

Virginia Woolf Avis

It is a fine book. All the essays are lucidly written, and most have something new and suggestive to offer. * Rachel Bowlby, TLS *
