Young Bloomsbury - Nino Strachey
I wanted to climb inside this book and live there PHOEBE WALLER-BRIDGE This witty, fascinating book is a delight. Read it MIRIAM MARGOLYES Superb, sparky and reflective The Spectator Gender fluidity? Pansexuality? Throuples? Chosen families? Cross-dressing? Kinks? Young Bloomsbury explores a place and time when queer life blossomed Washington Post Controversial before the First World War, the Bloomsbury Group became notorious in the 1920s. New members joined their ranks, pushing at boundaries, flouting conventions, and spurring their seniors to new heights of creative activity. Bloomsbury had always celebrated sexual equality and freedom in private, but this younger generation brought their transgressive lifestyles out into the open. Nino Strachey reveals a vivid history surprisingly relevant to our present day. One comes away slightly breathless with the sense of having left an excellent party full of wit and intrigue TLS Highly entertaining and pacy, a must for Bloomsbury fans, young or old. Country Life

Shakespeare in Bloomsbury - Marjorie Garber
The untold story of Shakespeareâ ™s profound influence on Virginia Woolf and the rest of the Bloomsbury Group  ⠜A spirited dance of minds.â â ”Chris Vognar, Boston Globe  For the men and women of the Bloomsbury Group, Shakespeare was a constant presence and a creative benchmark. Not only the works they intended for publicationâ ”the novels, biographies, economic and political writings, stage designs and reviewsâ ”but also their diaries and correspondence, their gossip and small talk turned regularly on Shakespeare. They read his plays for pleasure in the evenings, and on sunny summer afternoons in the country. They went to the theater, discussed performances, and speculated about Shakespeareâ ™s mind. As poet, as dramatist, as model and icon, as elusive â œlife,â Shakespeare haunted their imaginations and made his way, through phrase, allusion, and oblique reference, into their own lives and art.  This is a book about Shakespeare in Bloomsburyâ ”about the role Shakespeare played in the lives of a charismatic and influential cast, including Virginia and Leonard Woolf, Vanessa Bell, Clive Bell, Roger Fry, Duncan Grant, Lytton Strachey, John Maynard Keynes and Lydia Lopokova Keynes, Desmond and Molly MacCarthy, and James and Alix Strachey. All are brought to sparkling life in Marjorie Garberâ ™s intimate account of how Shakespeare provided them with a common language, a set of reference points, and a model for what they did not hesitate to call genius. Among these brilliant friends, Garber shows, Shakespeare was in effect another, if less fully acknowledged, member of the Bloomsbury Group.
