" Reading Virginia Woolf was rather a peculiar experience. At times it felt as though I was wading through a veritable treacle of dates and facts, far too many to take in at once, but at others I was cursing Lee for the sheer lack of information included on some subjects. Why oh why did the chapter on Katherine Mansfield have to be so short in comparison to the rest, for example? I'm not sure I'd read any of Lee's other biographies as I prefer those which are really absorbing, and Virginia Woolf unfortunately wasn't. Still, such a biography and the effort it must have taken to write it must be revered, hence my three star rating. "
