In following the format of the series, this book traces the connection between the life and writing career of Virginia Woolf. An upbringing of male domination and bouts of depression are two factors discussed which contributed to her unconventional writing styles. The unconventional and talented Bloomsbury Group helped to encourage Woolf's writing which developed many of the concerns now seen as part of a Modernist movement in literature. The author closely examines works such as "Mrs. Dalloway", "To the Lighthouse", "Orlando", "The Waves" and "A Room of One's Own" showing how Woolf experimented with methods such as interior monologue in search for a way of representing a world which she and many of her generation saw as chaotic.
