Lounsberry, Barbara Becoming Virginia Woolf (0813061393)
Starting with fourteen-year-old Woolf's first palm-sized leather diary,
Becoming Virginia Woolf illuminates how her private and public writing was shaped by the diaries of other writers including Samuel Pepys, James Boswell, the French Goncourt brothers, Mary Coleridge, Ralph Waldo Emerson Sir Walter Scott and Fanny Burney. These key literary connections open a new and indispensable window onto the story of one of literature's most renowned modernists.
