Virginia Woolf's "Jacob's Room": The Holograph Draft


Women in the Milieu of Leonard and Virginia Woolf: Peace, Politics, and Education. Edited by Wayne K. Chapman and Janet M. Manson.
This book is a valuable addition to scholarship on Bloomsbury, the history of women in Britain, and the work of Leonard and Virginia Woolf. It protrays an era and illuminates the work of a number of famous writers by examining less well-known lives and works that were part of the adaptive complex, or milieu. Several essays and appendices contribute significantly to our understanding of the extent the Woolfs collaborated with each other and with others. Beside the literary histories of S.P. Rosenbaum, this collection of original essays will be essential reading for students of Bloomsbury and women's history.

Virginia Woolf's "Jacob's Room": The Holograph Draft
Edited by Edward L. Bishop
Based on the holograph manuscrpt in the Henry W. and Albert A. Berg Collection of English and American Literature at the New York Public library, this transcription follows the original three-volume manuscript page for page and line for line, giving the reader a sense of how Jacob's Room was truly a work in progress. Written between 1920 and 1922, Jacob's Room was a literary experiment for Woolf, leaving behind the traditional forms of her previous novels, The Voyage Out and Night and Day. Included in Bishop's text are the short sketches that Virginia Woolf included in volume II of the manuscript. Additionally, spelling and punctuation has not been corrected or normalized to maintain continuity with the original manuscript.
