From the publisher: "As children, Virginia Woolf, her sister Vanessa Bell and brother Thoby collaborated on their own newspaper, recording the day-to-day events of the family home, 22 Hyde Park Gate . [g]ossipy, playful and at times irreverent, they record the comings and goings of a host of figures -- including aristocrats, academics, politicians and artists -- whilst also proffering their own fictional and poetic creations." And it's really funny. N° de ref. del artículo 447
