The First World War by Conrad Mason

These essays explore music and its relationship to language, aesthetics, and culture in the life and work of the preeminent Modernist writer Virginia Woolf (Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando, A Room of One's Own, and other works). Approaching Woolf from musicology, literary criticism, and gender studies, the collection examines her musical background; music in her fiction and critical writings; and the importance of music in the Bloomsbury milieu and its role within the larger framework of Modernism. Making use of Woolf's diaries, letters, fiction, and the testimony of her contemporaries, these essays illuminate the rich and deeply musical nature of Woolf's works.

Conrad Mason was born in 1984. He studied classics at Cambridge University and now works in London as an editor of children's fiction. The Goblin's Gift is his second novel, and the second title in the Tales of Fayt trilogy. You can visit him online at www.conrad-mason.com.
