Virginia Woolf Hermione Lee Random House Group Limited, Place of publication not identified, 2010

Hermione Lee sees Virginia Woolf afresh, in her historical setting and as a vital figure for our times.Hermione Lee sees Virginia Woolf afresh, in her historical setting and as a vital figure for our times. Her book moves freely between a richly detailed life-story and new attempts to understand crucial questions - the impact of her childhood, the cause and nature of her madness and suicide, the truth about her marriage, her feelings for women, her prejudies and obsessions. This is a vivid, close-up portrait, returning to primary sources, and showing Woolf as occupying a distinct, even uneasy position with 'Bloomsbury'. It is a writer's life, illustrating how the concerns of her work arise and develop, and a political life, which establishes Woolf as a radically sceptical, subversive, courageous feminist. Incorporating newly discovered sources and illustrated with photos and drawings never used before, this biography is a revelation -informed, intelligent and moving.

Virginia Woolf's nose : essays on biography Hermione Lee; Virginia Woolf Princeton University Press, Princeton, N.J, 2005

What choices must a biographer make when stitching the pieces of a life into one coherent whole? How do we best create an accurate likeness of a private life from the few articles that linger after death? How do we choose what gets left out? This intriguing and witty collection of essays by an internationally acclaimed biographer looks at how biography deals with myths and legends, what goes missing and what can't be proved in the story of a life. Virginia Woolf's Nose presents a variety of case-studies, in which literary biographers are faced with gaps and absences, unprovable stories and ambiguities surrounding their subjects. By looking at stories about Percy Bysshe Shelley's shriveled, burnt heart found pressed between the pages of a book, Jane Austen's fainting spell, Samuel Pepys's lobsters, and the varied versions of Virginia Woolf's life and death, preeminent biographer Hermione Lee considers how biographers deal with and often utilize these missing body parts, myths, and contested data to "fill in the gaps" of a life story.

Willa Cather Hermione Lee Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, 2017

Hermione Lee's provocative and influential biography provides a sensitive reappraisal of a marvelous and often underrated writer. The Willa Cather she reveals here was a Nebraskan who spent much of her life in self-imposed exile from the prairies she celebrated in O Pioneers! and My Antonia, a woman whose life was riddled with the tension between masculine and feminine, and a writer whose naturalness of style disguised exquisite artistry. By exposing the contradictions that lie at the heart of much of Cather's life and work, Lee locates new layers of meaning and places her firmly at the forefront of the modern literary tradition that was taking shape in her time.

Virginia Woolf Hermione Lee Vintage Books, a division of Random House, Inc, Vintage Books ed., PT, 1999

"A biography wholly worthy of the brilliant woman it chronicles. . . . It rediscovers Virginia Woolf afresh." --__The Philadelphia Inquirer__ While Virginia Woolf--one of our century's most brilliant and mercurial writers--has had no shortage of biographers, none has seemed as naturally suited to the task as Hermione Lee. Subscribing to Virginia Woolf's own belief in the fluidity and elusiveness of identity, Lee comes at her subject from a multitude of perspectives, producing a richly layered portrait of the writer and the woman that leaves all of her complexities and contradictions intact. Such issues as sexual abuse, mental illness, and suicide are brought into balance with the immensity of her literary achievement, her heroic commitment to her work, her generosity and wit, and her sanity and strength. It is not often that biography offers the satisfactions of great fiction--but this is clearly what Hermione Lee has achieved. Accessible, intelligent, and deeply pleasurable to read, her Virginia Woolf will undoubtedly take its place as the standard biography for years to come."One of the most impressive biographies of the decade: moving, eloquent, powerful as both literary and social history." --__Financial Times__"The most distinguished study of Woolf yet." --__The New Republic__

Biography: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions) Lee, Hermione IRL Press at Oxford University Press, 1st, 2009 aug 01

Biography is one of the most popular, best-selling, and widely-read of literary genres. But why do certain people and historical events arouse so much interest? How can biographies be compared with history and works of fiction? Does a biography need to be true? Is it acceptable to omit or conceal things? Does the biographer need to personally know the subject? Must a biographer be subjective? In this Very Short Introduction Hermione Lee considers the cultural and historical background of different types of biographies, looking at the factors that affect biographers and whether there are different strategies, ethics, and principles required for writing about one person compared to another. She also considers contemporary biographical publications and considers what kind of 'lives' are the most popular and in demand.

Ethan Frome is one of Wharton's most famous works; it is a tightly constructed and almost unbearably heartbreaking story of forbidden love in a snowbound New England village. Summer, also set in rural New England, is often considered a companion to Ethan Frome -Wharton herself called it “the hot Ethan”-in its portrayal of a young woman's sexual and social awakening. Bunner Sisters takes place in the narrow, dusty streets of late nineteenth-century New York City, where the constrained but peaceful lives of two spinster shopkeepers are shattered when they meet a man who becomes the unworthy focus of all their pent-up hopes. All three of these novellas feature realistic and haunting characters as vivid as any Wharton ever conjured, and together they provide a superb introduction to the shorter fiction of one of our greatest writers.

A Room of One's Own : And, Three Guineas Virginia Woolf, Anna Snaith, Hermione Lee Penguin Books Ltd, 2008

A Room of One's Own, based on a lecture given at Girton College Cambridge, is one of the great feminist polemics, ranging in its themes from Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte to the silent fate of Shakespeare's gifted (imaginary) sister and the effects of poverty and sexual constraint on female creativity. Three Guineas was published almost a decade later and breaks new ground in its discussion of men, militarism and women's attitudes towards war. These two pieces reveal Virginia Woolf's fiery spirit and sophisticated wit and confirm her status as a highly inspirational essayist.

lgli/Fitzgerald, Penelope - [A House of Air 01] • A House of Air (2003, Fourth Estate).epub

A house of air : selected writings Penelope Fitzgerald, Hermione Lee Fourth Estate, A House of Air 01, 2003

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY HERMIONE LEE The previously uncollected occasional prose of a great English writer – full of wit, feeling and illumination. Penelope Fitzgerald was a prolific letter writer. She avoided the phone if she could, never even contemplated the possibility of going online. Her warmth, humour and supreme storytelling abilities found their best forum here. Surprising, wonderfully funny, definitive, this is a major collection of Penelope Fitzgerald's reviews, essays and autobiographical writings. This collection includes pieces on contemporary novelists Giles Foden, Anne Enright, Carol Shields, Rose Tremain, Roddy Doyle; on classic writers Muriel Spark, A.E. Housman, Rose Macaulay, M.R. James, Stevie Smith, Dorothy L. Sayers; on remembering her grandfather E.H. Shepard; on her love of Devon and Spain and William Morris: on writers in their old age; and witty and poignant recollections of her schooldays, her life on a Thames barge, her childhood in Hampstead and the ghost who lived next door but one. This is a fantastically funny book – as much of an entertainment as the Kingsley Amis letters.

lgli/Virginia Woolf - To the Lighthouse.epub

To the Lighthouse Virginia Woolf, Mark Hussey, Virginia Woolf Penguin Classics, (Sept 2020 - epub revision), Penguin Classics (2000), 1926

Paperback, 268 pages Published 1927 Penguin Classics (2000) Modern Library 100 Best Novels (1900-1998) Introduction by: Hermione Lee Notes by: Stella McNichol To the Lighthouse is at once a vivid impressionist depiction of a family holiday, and a meditation on a marriage, on parenthood and childhood, on grief, tyranny and bitterness. Its use of stream of consciousness, reminiscence and shifting perspectives, give the novel an intimate, poetic essence, and at the time of publication in 1927 it represented an utter rejection of Victorian and Edwardian literary values. Virginia Woolf saw the novel as an elegy to her own parents, and in her diary she wrote: ’I used to think of him [father] and mother daily; but writing The Lighthouse laid them in my mind.’ This novel is an extraordinarily poignant evocation of a lost happiness that lives on in the memory. For years now the Ramsays have spent every summer in their holiday home in Scotland, and they expect these summers will go on forever. In this, her most autobiographical novel, Virginia Woolf captures the intensity of childhood longing and delight, and the shifting complexity of adult relationships. From an acute awareness of transcience, she creates an enduring work of art.

Willa Cather : double lives Lee, Hermione Vintage Books, 1st Vintage Books ed., New York, New York State, 1991

<p>cather Is Usually Read As A Nostalgic Celebrator Of The American Past. Lee Explores A Stranger And More Complex Cather, Whose Life And Work Are Rife With Split Identities, Sexual Conflicts And Stoic Fatalism. Illustrated.</p><h3>library Journal</h3><p>the Extremely Well-traveled, Versatile, And Prolific Willa Cather (1873-1947) Was A Private Person And Hence ``a Resistant Subject, Even An Obstructive One'' For A Biographer. Lee's Book, However, Is ``not A Biographical Tour,'' For When Cather Begins Writing Novels Lee Turns Away ``from What Happens In Her Life To What Happens In Her Language.'' The Result Is Excellent Reading For Anyone Who Knows Something Of Cather's Novels And Stories, Students Seeking Clear Interpretations, Or Laypersons Looking For A Solid Introduction. Lee Sees Cather's Fiction As More Complex Than Popularly Thought, More Rife With Conflict And Fatalism. The Author Consistently Links Cather's Writing And Life And Justly Emphasizes Some Largely Overlooked But Valuable Novels. This Is A Good Choice For General Literature Collections.-- John Miller, Normandale Com Munity Coll., Minne Apolis</p>
