A review by notafraidofvirginiawoolf
The Common Reader by Virginia Woolf

4.0

Much better than that splendidly pointless Mrs. Dalloway. Woolf is a skilled writer--particularly when she has an objective in mind--and keeps the mind going as she goes--carefully making her way from author to author, offering careful, precise insights on each one. I do wish she'd spoken of Dickens, though--I'd love to know her opinions on him.
Immensely well-written and wonderfully not-morbid.
