Lounsberry shows how Woolf's writing at this time was influenced by other diarists-Anton Chekhov, Katherine Mansfield, Jonathan Swift, and Stendhal among them-and how she continued to use her diaries as a way to experiment with form and as a practice ground for her evolving modernist style.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough close readings of Woolf 's journaling style and an examination of the diaries she read, Lounsberry tracks Woolf 's development as a writer and unearths new connections between her professional writing, personal writing, and the diaries she was reading at the time. \u003ci\u003eVirginia Woolf's Modernist Path\u003c\/i\u003e offers a new approach to Woolf 's biography: her life as she marked it in her diary from ages 36 to 46.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University Press of Florida","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52523184292120,"sku":"9780813064307","price":18.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/virginia-woolfs-modernist-path-her-middle-diaries-and-the-diaries-she-read-paperback-softback-9780813064307","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
