The diary of Virginia Woolf

The diary begins in January 1915, just before Woolf published her first novel, *The Voyage Out*, and ends in 1919.

It provides a unique insight into Woolf's life, including her daily activities, interactions with friends and contemporaries like Katherine Mansfield and T.S.

Eliot, and her reflections on writing and her state of mind.

The diary also serves as a civilian record of World War I, detailing events such as air raids, rationing, and the Spanish Flu. The entries are divided between her time in Richmond and East Sussex, reflecting different aspects of her life during this period.
