Reviews
"Lounsberry is the only scholar to treat Woolf's diaries for themselves-as works of art, as expressions of her private self, and as testing grounds for her experiments in novel-writing."-Panthea Reid, author of Tillie Olsen: One Woman, Many Riddles
""Offers a fascinating alternative form of biography. Lounsberry is particularly skillful in combining close attention to and interpretation of the details of Woolf's diary with a fluent sense of her life being lived across the years."-Mark Hussey, author of Virginia Woolf A to Z: A Comprehensive Reference for Students, Teachers, and Common Readers to Her Life, Work, and Critical Reception
"In the passionate diary-reader we find here, Barbara Lounsberry has brought to life one more Virginia Woolf" - Times Literary Supplement
