Description:

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) once mused that no biographer had ever been "subtle enough and bold enough to present that queer amalgamation of dream and reality, that perpetual marriage of granite and rainbow" that is an artist's life. Noted Woolf scholar Mitchell Leaska has now answered this daunting challenge in an uncompromising, deeply informed biography filled with new insights and fresh revelations. In addition to examining her crucial role in Hogarth Press, which published works by T. S. Eliot, Christopher Isherwood, Sigmund Freud, and Katherine Mansfield, Leaska recounts the hard realities of Woolf's life and how she transformed them in her iridescent novels, essays, letters, and diaries.
