In which I am annoyed with Virginia Woolf
Feb. 21st, 2014 11:09 amNot afraid. Just annoyed.
Virginia Woolf: most excellent of modernist writers, intellectuals, bohemians. She has my irrevocable admiration for her innovation and her wit and her elegant self-crafting. I am in favour of there having been a Virginia Woolf. I'd be perfectly happy if there were still one -- if she'd be cryogenically frozen and revivified, or turned out to be a vampire, say. I am not fussy. Zombie Virginia Woolf is okay by me. (What would she cry? Or would "BRAINS" do for her as well? "MOMENTSSS!" -- I don't know.)
( However, I have this for which to resent her: she said that Radclyffe Hall's The Well of Loneliness was no good. )
