Everything You Need To Know About Virginia Woolf

Author Roxana Robinson will interview Anne E. Fernald, editor of “The Oxford Handbook of Virginia Woolf,”  in a Zoom talk sponsored by the Cornwall Library  in Cornwall, Conn., on Sunday, April 3, at 4 p.m.

Registration is required at  https://cornwalllibrary.org/events/

Designed for students, scholars and everyday readers, “The Oxford Handbook of Virginia Woolf” is a compendium of information on Woolf’s life (both professional and personal), the influences that shaped her thinking and writing, and her legacy. Through its six sections, it explores every aspect of her work, including what was then an experimental form of writing employing stream-of- consciousness, as well as Woolf’s connection to the political issues of her day, her love of nature, and her connections to other women. Woven throughout the various chapters is information about the famed Bloomsbury circle.
