Virginia Woolf by Nigel Nicolson
(Published by Phoenix)
If you're put off by the size of Hermione Lee's tome on Virginia Woolf's life,
Nigel Nicolson's 160 page offering is far more digestible. He is the nephew of Vita
Sackville-West, a former lover of Woolf's and offers lots of personal insight
into the life of one of best female writers of the twentieth century. Very
informative, readable account focusing more on her life than her work.
