Incollerò di seguito gli appunti frettolosi e saltuari che ho preso, in genere al freddo intenso e sotto la pioggia, con una coperta sulle ginocchia, per via del tempo. Il fatto di aver tratto tanta bellezza, incanto, divertimento e di aver passato momenti tanto piacevoli viaggiando sulle strade bagnate, sotto un cielo grigio, la dice lunga sul nostro stato d'animo." I diari qui raccolti coprono gli ultimi dieci anni di vita della scrittrice e...

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) hat oft betont, wie viel sie Roger Fry (1866-1934) verdankte - dem englischen Kunstkritiker, Kurator, Maler und Freund. Durch ihn lernte sie die Kunst von Cézanne, Matisse und Picasso kennen. Deren Modernität sollte ihre spätere Romanarbeit nachhaltig beeinflussen. Gegen Ende ihres Lebens verfasste sie die Biografie ihres Freundes: Roger Fry - A Biography, eine Arbeit, die im deutschsprachigen Raum nie zur Kenntnis g...

Oggi che sono di moda i corsi di scrittura, potremmo chiederci se non sia il caso di creare anche e soprattutto dei corsi di lettura, se non altro perché i primi, se hanno davvero ragione di essere, devono necessariamente comprendere i secondi. Se leggere in sé non è difficile, saper davvero leggere un libro non è altrettanto facile, tanto che sui criteri della lettura, come su quelli della scrittura, da sempre ci si interroga. I due saggi e i...

Virginia Woolf non fu solo la grande romanziera che tutti conosciamo, ma anche una raffinata saggista, una critica acutissima, un'instancabile pubblicista. Lettrice onnivora e anarchica, cercò nei libri "una forma per il caos", vi trovò universi abitati da creature umane, con cui intrecciare ininterrotte conversazioni. Fin dalle prime recensioni lavorò senza pregiudizi: che si trattasse di epistolari, memorie o biografie, saggi critici o roman...

De jaren zijn momentopnames, te vergelijken met herinneringen aan ons eigen leven: er zijn jaren die eruit springen, waarvan we ons hele periodes voor de geest kunnen halen, als bergtoppen in de verte. Daartussen liggen de mistige dalen van de jaren die vergeten zijn. In een serie schetsen, van 1880 tot de jaren dertig, verweeft Virginia Woolf de geschiedenis van de familie Pargiter met gebeurtenissen uit de wereldgeschiedenis: de Boerenoorl...

A gorgeous clothbound edition of Woolf's fantastical and dazzlingly playful novel.

Excerpt from Jacob's RoomSo of course, wrote Betty Flanders, pressing her heels rather deeper in the sand, there was nothing for it but to leave.Slowly welling from the point of her gold nib, pale blue ink dissolved the full Stop, for there her pen stuck, her eyes fixed, and tears Slowly filled them.
