THE BLOOMSBURY GROUP

Were they a group?  Well, they certainly had interrelationships.  Among them was Virginia Woolf, who has a wall of honor in the Sitting Room.

Our Woolf wall has grown to honor others in the Bloomsbury web.  Virginia's sister Vanessa Bell was an artist.  Her close friend and lover, Vita Sackville-West, was also a writer and noted horticulturist. 

Read the biography of one and you are drawn to read about another.  It's their creativity, their life choice, their beliefs, their social encounters, and more.  Follow here when you can't browse in the Sitting Room.  Notice how different the two lists are in terms of emphasis and personnel.
