Bloomsbury writers particularly enjoyed the modernist mixing of forms, combining fact with fiction, polemics with aesthetics, humour with history. The pieces in this collection have therefore been arranged according to their genre and are complete in themselves, though some are parts of larger works. They pass from the objective to the subjective – from genres in which the writer′s presence is least felt in the work to those in which it may be dominant. The sequence from stories, biographies, and essays through reviews, polemics, and talks to travel writings and memoirs is framed by the forewords and afterwords written for some of Bloomsbury′s books.
Several familiar texts, such as E. M. Forster′s ′What I Believe′ or Virginia Woolf′s ′Mr Bennett and Mrs Brown′, have been included here, but many others are far well known. Virginia Woolf′s biography of her great aunt, for example, has not yet been collected. While Desmond MacCarthy′s introduction to the First Post–Impressionist Exhibition catalogue and Leonard Woolf′s very early review of Freud are believed never to have been previously reprinted.
"In this stunning new collection, S. P. Rosenbaum has given us a rich selection of the group′s own writings, brilliant pieces standing on their own, frequently hard to find, that demonstrate the wide range of topics, personalities, interests, written about with great wit and insight, that make Bloomsbury of such lasting fascination. It would be hard to imagine a better way to become acquainted with the group and for those who know it already to reread some favourite essays and to make new discoveries." Peter Stansky, Stanford University
"Will long be a standard anthology, I′ve no doubt, for both students and general readers." English
"Deserves a home in most literature collections." Book Review Digest
"This is an excellent selection. As a compendium of the shorter writings of the Bloomsbury Group it could scarcely have been bettered."Chris Ackerley, Journal of the Australasian Universities Language and Literature Association
