A review by bangel_ds
Diario di una scrittrice, by Virginia Woolf, Giuliana De Carlo

5.0

I'm not sure I can express all that I'm thinking about this book. pieces of Virginia's diaries, mostly on her writing process, her works, her essay, essentially her life. Because writing was clearly eveything for her. And she was suffering from something very dark, that at times drew her away. This is present in the entries, soft at first, silent and stronger later. Such a pity. She had a wonderful mind, so intelligent, so sharp and talented. Those minds usually feel too much. I've read three works of her and I loved 2 out of 3, for now..but one can't deny she was talented. she was writing at 50 like she was 20 and she really was extraordinaire. One of the women I would like to meet. I feel like I could talk about these diaries for a long time, but I invite you to read them instead. my words can never convey the feelings one feels while reading it.
