Reviews

Religion Around Virginia Woolf will inspire poets, novelists, theologians, scholars, anyone who has ever wondered about the origins of Virginia Woolf's genius. Stephanie Paulsell's brilliant and impassioned study uncovers the ways in which Woolf's life--and especially her life as a reader--shaped her writing about the hidden connections among humans, the making of art, and her notions of the divine. In brilliant, lucid prose, Paulsell's insights and close readings describe the 'fresh chapels, ' where we might find new forms of devotion. This is a book I'm recommending to all the serious readers and writers I know. --Ren Steinke, author of Friendswood Stephanie Paulsell takes our appreciation of Virginia Woolf's religious sensibilities to a new level. An important read for Woolf scholars, this book also demonstrates her significance for anyone interested in the spiritual value of literature. --Jane de Gay, author of Virginia Woolf and Christian Culture
