This book provides the most wide-ranging collection of the writing of noted Bloomsbury figure Vita Sackville-West in print. One of the most well-known lesbian authors of the Twentieth-century, Sackville-West was a central figure among the Bloomsbury modernists, and had a torrid love affair with Virginia Woolf. She wrote in an astounding variety of genres, including travel writing, poetry, fiction, and essays, and is probably best known for her novels, The Edwardians and All Passion Spent, and aristocratic writings about English country gardens. This book collects a wide variety of her works, over half of which, including her travel notebooks, her diaries, some short stories, and her intimate dream notebook, have never been published. With renewed interest in the modernist period and in the work of queer authors, this is an excellent time for a selected volume of Sackville-West's writings.
