Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume brings together a selection of short essays on the Bloomsbury Group - the loose association of artists and writers centred around the sisters Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell, which had an important influence on cultural and intellectual life in early 20th-century Britain. Essayists include Hermione Lee, biographer of Virginia Woolf; art historians Richard Shone and Frances Spalding; Nigel Nicolson, author of "Portrait of a Marriage", a study of his parents, Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicolson; and the last survivors of those closely connected to the Bloomsbury Group - Frances Partridge, Quentin Bell and Angelica Garnett. The essays are edited and introduced by Tony Bradshaw, the owner of The Bloomsbury Workshop, the art gallery and bookshop which specializes in the work of the Group. The text is illustrated with many previously unpublished works.
