This edition breaks new ground by giving us a completely new version of Woolf's posthumously published novel. " -Pamela L. Caughie, Wolf Studies Annual, Review of the series: 'The new collection [The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Virginia Woolf] will prove itself indispensable to serious Woolfians.'

Cambridge's new annotated edition not only restores the original draft, but also provides a rich halo of context." -Deirdre Foley-Mendelssohn, The Paris Review, 'This edition of what critics call Woolf's last novel will be the definitive one for years to come.'
