though, so the realities do come in sometimes.'

Source ed. quotes Morrell's recollection, in Ottoline at Garsington: Memoirs of Lady Ottoline Morrell, 1915-1918 (1974) p.244, that 'When we were talking about keeping a journal, I said mine was filled with thoughts and struggles of my inner life. She [Woolf] opened her eyes wide in astonishment' (see p.79 n.28 in source). |
