A collection of Virginia Woolf's correspondence from age six to the eve of her marriage twenty-four years later.

Introduction by Nigel Nicolson; Index; photographs.
First published under title: The question of things happening : the letters of Virginia Woolf, vol. II: 1912-1922.

The penultimate volume of Woolf's letters, when the author was between the ages of 50 and 53, covers the composition of the Years and the death of Lytton Strachey and Roger Fry.

The last volume of Virginia Woolf's "Collected Letters" runs from 1936, when she was finishing "The Waves", to 1941, when she drowned herself. But there is little or no shadow of impending tragedy over her sparkling correspondence with Vanessa, Vita, Ethel Smyth and her many other friends.
