VIRGINIA WOOLF - BIOGRAPHY


"Virginia Woolf was born in 1882, the youngest daughter of the Victorian writer Leslie Stephen. After her father´s death, Virginia moved with her sister Vanessa (later Vanessa Bell) and her brothers Thoby and Adrian to 46 Gordon Square, which was to be the first meeting place of the Bloomsbury Group. Virginia married Leonard Woolf in 1912, and together they established the Hogarth Press. Virginia also published her first novel, The Voyage Out, in 1912, and she subsequently wrote eight more, several of which are considered classics, as well as two books of seminal feminist thought. Woolf suffered from mental illness throughout her life and committed suicide in 1941." (Taken from the Book - To The Lighthouse - Virginia Woolf - Page - 248 - Colectors´s Library).


Virginia Woolf é, sem sombra de dúvida, um peso sacro na Literatura! Seguindo o famoso "Fluxo de Consciência", originalmente: "Stream of Consciousness", característica marcante de sua Literatura! Clarice Lispector foi influenciada por Virginia Woolf, ou seja, pelo estilo de escrita "Fluxo de Consciência".
