Description: A very smart copy of this epistolary essay to regarding modern poetry, published by the Hogarth Press. The first edition, in the original paper wraps. The Hogarth Letters Number Eight. First published in The Yale Review, earlier the same year. The work acts a response to John Lehman's letter to Woolf following The Waves, in which she is asked her view on modern poetry. Lehman wanted to revitalise modern poetry, and sought Woolf, and The Hogarth Press' help, to do so. Written by the Bloomsbury author Virginia Woolf, a central figure of the literary group, herself known for her experimental writings and affair with fellow author Vita Sackville-West. Published by the Hogarth Press, the Bloomsbury publishing house founded ran by Leonard and Virginia Woolf. The press was founded in the interwar period, as printing became a hobby for the couple, diverting Virginia when her writing became too stressful. Both Woolfs' taught themselves to use a printing press, publishing 527 titles from the period of 1917 to 1946. In the original paper wraps. Externally very smart with slight creasing to the wrap. Slight browning to the wrap. Internally firmly bound. Pages bright and clean with marginal age toning. Small closed tear to half title, approximately one inch. Very Good Indeed
