This article is a biography of Virginia Woolf and her works. Its list all of her works all published by Hogarth Press. It tells you all about her birth in London,her family and friends. Her children, her education, and her inspiration. It gives a life long listed timeline of her and her books, with brief snyopsises of the works by Virginia Woolf. If you are fan or even of you just would like to find out about her works this is a good place to start. I would say that Virginia Woolf could make a whole humanities course in college and you would actually enjoy it. It discusses her philosophies, her struggles with getting published. It talks about different people in her life and how they affected her writing. She began to write, in 1905, for a literary suppliment, got married and her husband actually started Hogarth Press. That would explain why all of her books were published there. Her husband Leonard Woolf was also a writer and some of the list of his works are listed in this biography. Her first published book was The Voyage Out and she continued to publish beautiful work throughout her life. This biography is a good basis, or reference for anyone who enjoys Virginia Woolf. It includes links to other pages to get her works or more information. It is a good place to start if you want to begin looking at Her works. She is a very beautiful writer and very thought provoking. Her techniques and symbolism we ahead of its time. That is why Virginia Woolf was included in the humanities readings. She really makes you think about life, changes and society. She is an inspiration to all that have read her works. Everyone should read atleast one of her works at some point in their lives, not just for class, but for yourselves.
