内容简介

Congenial Spirits, selected and edited by Joanne Trautmann Banks, brings together the finest and most enjoyable of Virginia Woolf's letters in a single volume. This is a marvellous collection - spontaneous, witty, often flirtatious, powerfully moving. Whether bemoaning some domestic travail, commenting publicly on the state of the nation, or taking up her pen, inspired, to discuss cultural, artistic or personal concerns, Virginia Woolf is one of the great correspondents. This volume displays not only Woolf's courage and brilliance, her generosity and love of gossip, but also her genius for close and enduring friendship.
