内容説明

Written between 1909 and 1912, three years before Virginia Woolf published her first book, this original novel reveals a far angrier, starker, more feminist and explicitly lesbian perspective than that of 'The Voyage Out', which it eventually became. Owing to strain and her fear of reprisals for authoring such an outspoken work, Woolf diminished the novel's once-sharp edge with each draft. Now, culled from over 1,000 manuscript pages over a 7-year period, the publication of Woolf's first attempt as a novelist is a landmark event for feminists, academics and fans alike.

内容説明

Virginia Woolf completed her first novel, Melymbrosia, in 1912. The story concerned the emotional and sexual awakening of a young English- woman traveling abroad and bristled with social commentary on homosexuality, the suffrage movement and colonialism. Woolf was warned, however, that publishing an outspoken indictment of Britain could prove disastrous to her fledgling career as a novelist. The revised, quieter book was published under the title The Voyage Out. After seven years of searching the archives of the New York Public Library, Melymbrosia is now uncovered.
