Media Reviews


"...Jan Marsh gives us an entertaining and concise biography of the Bloomsbury group....The illustrations are well produced, and black-and-white photographs of the Bloomsbury men and women help bring them to life for the reader. This book is an excellent introduction to an informal association of men and women who eschewed Victorian social conventions and expressed themselves as individuals in their lives and art."

   -- Lori D. Kranz, Bloomsbury Review
