Virginia Woolf 
Monday or Tuesday 

Adeline Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) was an English writer. She is widely hailed as being among the most influential modernist authors of the 20th century and a pioneer of stream of consciousness narration. Woolf was a central figure in the feminist criticism movement of the 1970s, her works having inspired countless women to take up the cause. She suffered numerous nervous breakdowns during her life primarily as a result of the deaths of family members, and it is now believed that she may have suffered from bipolar disorder. In 1941, Woolf drowned herself in the River Ouse at Lewes, aged 59. First published in 1921, “Monday or Tuesday” is a collection of eight short stories by Virginia Woolf. They include: “A Haunted House”, “A Society”, “Monday or Tuesday”, “An Unwritten Novel”, “The String Quartet”, “Blue & Green”, “Kew Gardens”, and “The Mark on the Wall”. Highly recommended for those with an interest in feminist literature and lovers of the short story form. Other notable works by this author include: “To the Lighthouse” (1927), “Orlando” (1928), and “A Room of One’s Own” (1929). Read & Co. Classics is proudly republishing this collection of classic short stories now complete with a specially-commissioned biography of the author.
