Although more commonly associated with Bloomsbury, Virginia and her husband Leonard Woolf lived in Richmond-upon-Thames for ten years from the time of the First World War (1914-1924). Refuting the common misconception that she disliked the town, this book explores her daily habits as well as her intimate thoughts while living at the pretty house she came to love – Hogarth House. Drawing on information from her many letters and diaries, the editor reveals how Richmond’s relaxed way of life came to influence the writer, from her experimentation as a novelist to her work with her husband and the Hogarth Press, from her relationships with her servants to her many famous visitors. Virginia's Richmond -- The Hogarth Press -- Woolf on writing -- Family in the Richmond area -- Virginia and her servants -- Gathering with Woolf -- Health -- Photographs -- Virginia at her leisure -- Woolf on war -- Leonard's viewpoint -- A lasting legacy
