Literary studies: general

Paperback. Virginia Woolf's only autobiographical writing is to be found in this collection of five pieces. Despite Quentin Bell's biography and other studies of her, the author's own account of her early life should hold fascination for its unexpected detail and clear-sighted judgement of Victorian values. Num Pages: 208 pages. BIC Classification: 2AB; BGA; DSBH; DSK. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 230 x 154 x 16. Weight in Grams: 284.
