jazzy_daveVirginia Woolf "Carlyle's House and Other Sketches" (Hesperus Classics)
Essential early Woolf in a lovely little edition from Hesperus. This is a collection of several previously unpublished and unknown diary sketches Woolf wrote when she was 27. The introduction and accompanying notes are fascinating and valuable but what a pity that so much of the introduction is spent apologising for the fact that Woolf's views of 100 years ago are not politically correct. Insulting to us readers who have enough intelligence to make our own judgements.
Just one caveat,only 16 pages of the 70 are her own writing.
