Legge per il proprio piacere piuttosto che per impartire conoscenze o correggere le opinioni altrui'. Così Virginia Woolf descrisse il 'lettore comune' per il quale scrisse la sua seconda serie di saggi. Qui rivolge il suo sguardo brillante a romanzi e poesie da John Donne a Christina Rossetti e Mary Wollstonecraft, oltre a molti altri. Questa è una celebrazione informale, informativa e spiritosa del nostro patrimonio letterario e sociale da parte di uno scrittore geniale.

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was born in London. She became a central figure in The Bloomsbury Group, an informal collective of British writers, artists and thinkers. In 1912 Virginia married Leonard Woolf, a writer and social reformer. She wrote many works of literature which are now considered masterpieces, including Mrs Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando, and The Waves.
So Virginia Woolf described the ‘common reader’ for whom she wrote her second series of essays. Here she turns her brilliant eye on novels and poetry from John Donne to Christina Rossetti and Mary Wollstonecraft as well as many others. This is an informal, informative and witty celebration of our literary and social heritage by a writer of genius.
