was saying.
Virginia Woolfs short fiction has long been acknowledged as the place where she tried out some of her more experimental techniques before adopting and adapting them for use in her novel-length works. While this is certainly true, it is also the case that these short pieces are now increasingly
being recognized as important works of art in their own right, rather than simply flights of experimental fancy awaiting their full actualization in the novel form.
This new edition edited by Bryony Randall emphasises the startling variety in Woolfs experimentation during the most productive period of short fiction writing in Woolfs life, the late 1910s through to the end of the 1920s. It draws readers attention to the deep political engagements evident
across the range of her work and on the recent burgeoning of work in modernist print culture to set out the importance of the material context of these works initial publication and reception.
