@margaux1a1 the writing is craftsmanship...try looking for death of the mouth!
-
it's really extraordinary to listen to her voice....I find it quite frail but firm at the same time...I was trying to imagine her speaking at the newnham and girton colleges...
-
She killed herself in 1941...the same year Joyce died....Yet how can we have next to nothing of their actual voices?
-
@GreenOrbs haha because they are. :-)
-
@GreenOrbs I think she sounds just like Margaret Thatcher.
-
Because they spoke in the RP (Received Pronunciation) British accent that was used in all English "public" schools in the early 20th century, spoken by the Queen, and later adopted by the BBC and many British television programs.

Wow, me too, how it's possible ? to have the chance to listen her voice !
Love Virginia Woolf but why do modernist writers always sound like old wizards!
