Encompassing thirty-eight handwritten volumes, Virginia Woolfs diary is her lengthiest and longest-sustained work, and the last to reach the public. In the only full-length work to deeply explore this luminous and boundary-stretching masterpiece, Barbara Lounsberry traces Woolfs development as a writer through her first twelve diaries, a fascinating experimental stage, where the earliest hints of Woolfs pioneering modernist style can be seen. Starting with fourteen-year-old Woolfs first palm-sized leather diary, Becoming Virginia Woolf illuminates how her private and public writing was shaped by the diaries of other writers including Samuel Pepys, James Boswell, the French Goncourt brothers, Mary Coleridge, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Woolfs diary parents Sir Walter Scott and Fanny Burney. These key literary connections open a new and indispensable window onto the story of one of literatures most renowned modernists.
