Description
The Shakespeare Head Press edition of "Night and Day" is based on a detailed study of the extant manuscript fragment and on a computer comparison of the first English and American editions. Set in upper-middle-class London just before the outbreak of the World War I and with the suffragist issue at its forefront, this is Woolf's second and longest novel. The introduction and annotations to this edition aim to elucidate the novel's preoccupations and origins, its historical and biographical background, and to reveal how, in creating her characters, Woolf drew directly from life. Her sitters included Anne Thackeray Ritchie, Leonard Woolf, Lytton Strachey and Vanessa Bell, the author's sister, to whom "Night and Day" is dedicated. This edition includes a map of early 20th-century London, as well as a plate from the manuscript.
