--Joseph Ludlow for NB Magazine " features an intriguing collection of Virginia Woolf's thoughts and musings on daily life, work, and rest, revealed in evocative excerpts from Virginia's diaries and letters, written between 1914 and 1924. These are complemented by Fullagar's narrative commentary, which is crisp and informative."
--The Modernist Review "Fullagar's book reveals what life was like during the First World War for the Woolfs... [it's] an unusual addition to the Woolf library, however, published in association with the campaign to erect a life-sized sculpture of Woolf on the riverside. Book and statue together should help maintain awareness of the valuable literary legacy that Woolf left behind."
--TLS "Lively, diverse and readable, this book captures beautifully Virginia Woolf's time in leafy Richmond, her mixed emotions over this exile from central London, and its influence on her life and work. This illuminating book is a valuable addition to literary history, and a must read for every Virginia Woolf enthusiast..."
--Emma Woolf, writer, journalist, presenter and Virginia Woolf's great niece
