    Kindle Version Desperately Needed!
  

*by K***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2018*

As a former teacher of college English and lifetime student of English literature, I eagerly anticipated reading Hermione Lee’s biography of Woolf. Although I’d read Woolf’s novels, letter, and diaries as well as Quentin Bell’s bio and many other critical works about her and Leonard, Lee’s new book immediately impressed me. It’s beautifully written and provides deep background information beyond the normal facts of a life.  I’m certain that when I am able to read the book, it will merit five stars. Unfortunately, however, I have not been able to read beyond the fourth chapter. The book is just too big for arthritic hands, and the print is too tiny for old eyes. This is a book that needs to be available in electronic form! Notes to Lee through her web site and to her publishers begging them to authorize a Kindle version got no reply.

    Quite an amazing piece of work!
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2020*

Years  ago in the late 1970's I read Quentin Bell's biography of Virginia Woolf,  which I loved. I am a great admirer of its subject  and have read all of her novels at least twice. I also wrote a paper on her"feminism" when I was in graduate school in the 70's and in doing so, read the editions of her Letters and her Diary, which were coming out then. At that time, A Room of One's Own was my "Bible;" and looking back I see that it has had an enormous impact on my life. This wonderfully-written, highly-reflective, and thoroughly-researched book is for someone like me, who already loves Virginia Woolf and wants to know more and more -- and more -- about her. For someone who is just getting to know her, however, I recommend Quentin Bell's biography instead.

    A Tour De Force of An Extraordinary Woman and Writer: Her Life, Times, Struggles and Enduring Legacy...
  

*by K***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2018*

This is at first heft a tome, very weighty physically, but even meatier in the depth and breadth of knowledge and historical data of the life and times of Virginia Woolf. I must say that I have heard her name mentioned so often and in so many tantalizingly vague, but scandalous and semi-scandalous contexts, that I thought I knew more than I really did, which was just a lot of superficial cultural mumbo-jumbo, but in reading this book and a couple others beforehand, have opened my eyes to so much more...that Virginia Woolf was not only a writer of great talent and discernment, and not only intermittently unbalanced emotionally and mentally, and ultimately fatally, but that she was far ahead of her time, not only as an independent woman thinker and reluctant feminist, but as an experimental writer of literary forms, a liberal and freethinker socially, culturally, politically, sexually, economically, and religiously. She was a 'common reader' as she named some of her published works, but only because she considered herself incompletely and home/self educated, since she never received a formal college or university education. This was a bone of contention from which she never fully recovered or would ever be able to fully forgive either her father or the patronizing and limiting patriarchal society into which she was born and reared, and which she resented her entire life, spilling over into resentment for those male members of her social class who she felt were favored with special and exclusive membership into the upper echelon of 'Oxbridge' intellectual life. She managed to excel through sheer strength of mind as well as of her will, and to flourish professionally, as well as become one of the most productive and respected writers of her time, in some instances far exceeding the initial promise and ultimate output of more promising literary luminaries and purported talents. A tour de force of an extraordinary woman's personal journey to 'becoming and being', with a well-deserved place in twentieth century literature and an enduring legacy.
