Night and Day | Virginia Woolf

#VirginiaBloomsberries

Our next #buddyread is Night and Day, published in 1919. As one of her earlier works, it is another example of her development as a writer. Set in Edwardian London, the story centres on 2 friends and their romances.
All welcome to join us. Please let me know if you wish to be added/removed from the taglist.

Cuilin I absolutely loved The Mark on the Wall. It‘s like it‘s scratched an itch I didn‘t know I had. (Curious, if other ADHD people feel this way about automatic writing style). 2w

Two Stories | Mark Haddon, Virginia Woolf

pick

Originally Two Stories consisted of “Three Jews” by Leonard and “The Mark on the Wall” by Virginia.

Who knew that it was possible to get so many thoughts from looking at a mark on the wall? In the introduction to the story it said that this is when we first see the author Virginia is to become and I can see that.

This edition contains a story by Mark Haddon titled “St Brides Bay” which seems to mirror Virginia‘s writing style.

AnneCecilie #VirginiaBloomsberries @AllDebooks 2w

AllDebooks I have this edition, too. I found it so absorbing and so relaxing to read, just letting my thoughts drfit with hers. 2w

AnneCecilie @AllDebooks That‘s also a little dangerous. I will read and get lost in what I read and I stop and think “what did I just read?” and then I have to read it again 2w

AllDebooks @AnneCecilie True 😅 2w

AllDebooks @Librarybelle it's much shorter, thankfully. I'll keep alternating as her work does need concentrated reading. 2mo

Librarybelle I just did not budget my time with Voyage—enjoying it so far! 2mo

IndoorDame Can you take me off the tag list? I was eager to try reading with you all last month since I‘m definitely planning to read more Wolf this year, but I‘m just not up to group reads right now. I‘ll take a look at what everyone thought about The Voyage Out whenever I manage to pick it up. 2mo

AllDebooks @IndoorDame of course. No problem. 😊 2mo

kspenmoll I am still in The Voyage. Where did you find the short story? I am having trouble locating. 2mo

AllDebooks @kspenmoll I got my copy secondhand via Amazon 2mo
