Cecil Torr : Small Talk at Wreyland (vol 1 and/or 2)

Tuesday 14 February 1922: 'I am reading [in convalescence, following week of illness] Moby Dick: Princesse de Cleves; Lord Salisbury; Old Mortality; Small Talk at Wreyland; with an occasional bite at the Life of Lord Tennyson, of Johnson; & anything else I find handy. But this is all dissipated & invalidish. I can only hope that like dead leaves they may fertilise my brain.'

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: Virginia Woolf      Print: Book
