Summary: This fourth volume of the first complete edition of Virginia Woolf's essays and reviews celebrates her maturing vitality and wonderfully reveals her prodigious reading, wit and original intelligence.

The volume also includes her moving introduction to the Modern Library Edition of MRS. DALLOWAY, not previously published.
