📱 eBook en inglés A WRITER'S DIARY (SUMMARIZED EDITION)

A Writers Diary distills Virginia Woolfs notebooks into a sustained chronicle of artistic practice, tracing the composition of Mrs Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando, The Waves, and the late essays alongside her reading, reviewing, and publishing work. Selected and arranged by Leonard Woolf from entries spanning 1918–1941, the volume foregrounds the workshop of modernism: experiments in voice and rhythm, candid reports of false starts and breakthroughs, and keen observations of London and the Sussex downs. The prose moves between quicksilver notations and lapidary meditation, revealing Woolfs method of tuning sentences to sensation; its context is the interwar literary world, the Bloomsbury conversations, and the evolving marketplace of little magazines and the Hogarth Press. Born into a distinguished literary family and central to the Bloomsbury Group, Woolf co-ran the Hogarth Press with Leonard, wrote groundbreaking feminist essays, and used her diary as a laboratory for craft, solace, discipline, and intellectual experiment. Essential for writers, scholars of modernism, and devoted readers, A Writers Diary offers both a craft manual and a cultural history in miniature—an intimate, unsentimental companion to Woolfs fiction and essays that clarifies how an epochal style is made.
