Selected Diaries by Virginia Woolf
By @vintagebooks @penguinukbooks
The first read of the year and the first book that I haven’t finished reading and have given towards the end
The book is collection of the journal writings of the author Virginia Woolf. A women who has done an amazing work in the field of literature,but has had a depressing life. Despite having a amazing career, husband and social life with people of same intellectual calibre, she had tonight depression, nervous attacks, headache. This led her to suicide in the year 1941
My opinion
I found this book very depressing because despite doing what she was s passionate about, leads my an amazing life with beautiful husband and amongst amazing intellects and authors she did suicide. She wasn’t happy and felt that there was void in her life. She was person who had to endure depression, nervous and migraine attacks spending most of the time in bed. She maintained an active social life which I find it missing in my life, yet she could find the happiness in her life. Sad isn’t ??
I would rate the book 3/5
