When A Masterpiece May Need An Advocate

This paperback-only book is a Masterpiece, and frankly one of the best books written about Virginia Woolf. Certainly, books abound about her - but they were not written by this author and insider with vast connections to both Virginia and Leonard Woolf. Also, aside from the substantive content, the book is truly a labor of love. I've never "advocated" for a book before but Virginia Woolf surely is still "with us" as one of the most masterful and popular authors of all time. If she cannot literally speak for herself (although her own writings do that exceedingly well), I believe it is our responsibility to go-tell-it-on-the-mountain when a gem-of-a-book about one of the greatest female-genius-writers is about to go down for the count. Oh, and the front cover photo of VW alone is worth almost as much as the book itself for VW was never again photographed with her guard down in quite this way. The book tells you why.
