It makes me so happy! Some people don't find her easy to read but others love her to pieces. I'll be interested to hear from you what you think if you ever read her work. I'd start with this little book, or for fiction, Mrs Dalloway.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-40540463035769248362009-01-26T11:58:00.000-05:002009-01-26T11:58:00.000-05:00Unfortunately, I have not read any of the Virginia...Unfortunately, I have not read any of the Virginia Woolf publishings, after reading your post, I am curious.<BR/>What a lovely birthday letter, and the excerpts from her writings seem delightful, and full of imagination.<BR/>I plan to read further.<BR/>Thanks for the introduction !A Brit in Tennesseehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16080644141670903160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-27154178139202330722009-01-26T11:54:00.000-05:002009-01-26T11:54:00.000-05:00Jennifer and Kay, I'm so pleased that you followed...Jennifer and Kay, I'm so pleased that you followed the link and came here to read VW's entry on her birthday. That's just so great. Gosh, it has been a long time since I've read Night and Day. My copy is so old it cost $3.95!! Kay, I've never known what in the world that movie/play title had to do with this author. Maybe because they were academics??

I can totally relate to the joy she feels in the crisp snowy day, in receiving a green purse when you were "good" and believed you'd receive nothing.

To think that Virginia had ordinary, surprisingly happy days, among the many depressive moments-- makes my heart glad. I've long contemplated the waves.

I am a VW fan along with Bloomsbury generally. The painters, including Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, are of great interest (mostly for their home decoration and lifestyle though).katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03979577122006222781noreply@blogger.com
