connections

I couldn't agree more with both Jason and Tara. The synthesis of VW's life into her work is the goal of all great art. Always making the connection and creating the flow of ideas until the line blurs between art and life.
I was also under the misconception that VW's work was dark and gloomy. Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf has taken on new meaning in this seminar. Her sense of humor is as refined as her writing, another synthesis and a wonderful attribute to have as an artist or a person. The ability to make fun of yourself. Although VW is a bit over critical of herself and her work, perhaps another attribute to creating great art.


Sideline: I am finding The Waves a bit more difficult after the romp of Orlando, although its early in the story still. Looking for the connections mentioned by Jason and Tara and not finding them yet. More poetry than prose. See you in 10 minutes.
