A partial view of Woolf, pertaining strictly to her writing. It was not until Woolf's full Diaries were published that they were recognized as one of her literary masterpieces. A lovely copy indeed. "If Virginia Woolf at the age of 50, when she sits down to build her memoirs out of these books, is unable to make a phrase as it should be made, I can only condole with her and remind her of the existence of the fireplace, where she has my leave to burn these pages to so many black films with red eyes in them. /Dust Jacket Included.
