#NewYearNewYou Day 5: In this illustrated biography of Woolf, it was evident how Virginia followed her own counsel, and did not care too much about what other people would say, or even about appearances and propriety as she “scandalously” shared a house with four men, including her brother, Adrian. #Scandal My full review of this gorgeous book: https://wp.me/pDlzr-dyU
This gorgeously illustrated biography follows Woolf‘s remarkable life and works. She was one of the founding member of the Bloomsbury Group.
Excerpt:”On Thursday evenings, Virginia‘s brother Thoby would invite his Cambridge friends to gather in the parlour to discuss art, politics, philosophy and their grand ideas. This was the start of the Bohemian ‘Bloomsbury Group‘ and Virginia delighted in her new freedom.”

Another charming book in the Life Portraits series. Interesting information about the remarkable life of Woolf, the Bloomsbury Group, and her relationship with Leonard Woolf. Filled with anecdotes, quotes, and pretty illustrations. 💜
Here is a glimpse of the endpapers of the books and some of the illustrations 🙂❤️
Virginia Woolf, Nespresso, and leche flan - makes sense to me. :) Saturday Reads.
