From the Back Cover:
"Most valuable, to my thinking, is Caramagno's demonstration of the interrelationship between Woolf's literary brilliance and her devastating depressions and creative highs, and his insights into the creative process itself."--Ronald R. Fieve, M.D., author of "Moodswing
Synopsis:
"This book is a knockout. After reading it, Woolf scholars (like me), and everyone else, are going to have to rethink everything we think we know about Virginia Woolf. I expected yet another predictable book on Woolf's madness . . . and instead came away thoroughly impressed."--Jane C. Marcus, Distinguished Professor of English at The City College of New York and Coordinator of Women's Studies at the CUNY Graduate Center
"Caramagno's powerfully revisionist account of Woolf's life and work traces her courageous attempt to record and understand her own mental illness. His book throws a flood of light on the relentlessly honest self-scrutiny of her autobiographical writing as well as on the deliberate discontinuities of her fiction."--Alex Zwerdling, author of "Virginia Woolf and the Real World
A re-evaluation of Virginia Woolf's life and work in terms of current medical knowledge about mental illness, especially manic depression. It shows how Woolf's novels and her personal writings dramatize a struggle to imagine and master psychic fragmentation.
