Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf was born in 1882, the daughter of a man of letters, and was educated mainly in her father's library and through classes for girls at King's College London, while her brothers went to university. She settled in Bloomsbury in 1904 with her brothers and her sister, and in 1917 founded with her husband a publishing house that published most of her books. She suffered from breakdowns from adolescence. She took her own life in March 1941, in a river in Sussex, her pockets filled with stones.
