  1. Like a lot of people, I'm a little bit in awe of Virginia. I've made a small dent in her already with mixed results which has made me more inclined to pick up those - if indeed there could be said to be any - that are more reader friendly. This will not do! It's too late now to read them in order which would've been the best way because she was constantly evolving and trying for something new .. but I will read them chronologically .. ish from now on (some of the essays and short stories were published posthumously as collections etc). Later down the line, when/if I have recovered and if the will is still there I may add books by other Bloomsbury members (Lytton Strachey and Leonard Woolf in particular) and associates (Vita Sackville West, Katherine Mansfield, Edith Sitwell & T.S. Eliot etc) but for now .. Virginia's work, and the biogs about her, are challenging enough. I've stocked up on migraine cures, sedatives and alcohol ... let's see if I can reach Mastermind status with my knowledge of the Woolf ( ) Progress 18/40 Fiction: Melymbrosia (an early version of The Voyage Out) The Voyage Out (1915) review Jacob's Room (1922) Mrs Dalloway (1925) To the Lighthouse (1927) review Orlando (1928) review The Waves (1931) Flush (1933) review The Years (1937) review Between the Acts (1941) Short Story Collections: Selected Short Stories A Haunted House A Society Monday or Tuesday An Unwritten Novel The String Quartet Blue and Green Kew Gardens The Mark on the Wall Solid Objects In the Orchard A Women's College from Outside The Lady in the Looking Glass The Shooting Party The Duchess and the Jeweller Lappin and Lapinova The Complete Shorter Fiction (1989) Biographies: Roger Fry (1940) Non-Fiction/Essays: The Common Reader (1925) A Room of One's Own (1929) review On Being Ill (1930) The London Scene (1931) The Common Reader - Second Series (1932) Three Guineas (1938) The Death of the Moth and other Essays (1942) The Moment and other Essays (1947) The Captain's Death Bed and other Essays (1950) Granite and Rainbow (1958) Books and Portraits (1978) Women and Writing (1979) Selected Letters (2008) Selected Diaries (2008) (having read these I would like to read the complete versions ... if I can track them down at a non-bankrupt inducing price ).
