A revised and fully updated edition, featuring five new chapters reflecting recent scholarship on Woolf.
Susan Sellers is Professor of English and Related Literature at the University of St Andrews.
"Published in 2000, the first edition of The Cambridge Companion to
Virginia Woolf declared that its attentions would be directed
towards Woolf’s “mind: the breadth of her intellectual range; her
impulsive flights of creative brilliance, the long labours of
composition; her conversations with the present; her arguments with
history” (xiii). This second edition, directed “towards those
wishing to augment their reading through an introduction to the
interrogations and discoveries of Woolf scholars today” (xix) has
lost none of its enthusiasm for its subject, and its scope remains
impressive."
