Virginia Woolf - An Unpublished Notebook (1907-1909) - Poche

Between 1907 and 1909, Virginia Woolf, who is not yet the world famous writer, is keeping a notebook. This one, hitherto unpublished, filled by a young woman (she is 25 years old) is extremely precious. These pages illustrate the novelist's familiarity with classical humanities during all her life. They shed new light on V. Woolf's biography and on a period of her existence which the Journal largely ignores.
Under the guise of simple notes jotted down on paper, its offers an intellectual portrait of someone who, like the narrator in A Room of One's Own, has not found her place in the academic world. This text, written while the Bloomsbury group is formed and developed, makes it possible to explore the links V. Woolf, overshadowed by her dead father and brother, weaves between classical humanities and contemporary literary experiments.
