They called the paper "Hyde Park Gate News", and the original manuscripts are published here for the first time. Ingeniously mimicking the style of the leading newspapers of the day, the Stephen children present a charming and candid portrayal of their lives in London and at their holiday home in St Ives. Gossipy, 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. Not only a delightful account of childhood, "Hyde Park Gate News" gives a fascinating insight into Woolf's apprenticeship in writing. It also offers a glimpse behind the curtains of the family life which she would later draw on in writing the masterpieces of her maturity.' [Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper] ***First impression of the true first edition - quite hard to find in hardcover in first impression. A lovely book for those interested in Virginia Woolf, Vanessa Bell and the Bloomsbury Group. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Vanessa Bell (illustrator).
