4769. Sowing An Autobiography of the Years 1880 to 1904, by Leonard Woolf (read 20 Oct 2010) This volume covers the years from Woolf's birth to the time in 1904 when he left for Ceylon. In the early part of the book he expiates on how opposed he is to religion and belief, which I thought overdone and did not really care about. He muchly deprecates his time at St. Paul's and tells of his years at Cambridge, which is of interest even though it mainly tells of his friends and fellow intellectuals. I found this interesting reading, but whether I will read the other two volumes of his autobiography I do not know. ( )

I got very easily into the first volume of Leonard Woolf's autobiography, I very much enjoy 'campas' books, life in academe. Woolf was surrounded by fine minds, creative and philosophical and is interesting when writing of others as well as himself. ( )

Great 3 books about the Woolfs, Leonard and Virginia. Talented, and tragic. ( )

Really looking forward to the next volume, which I discover I own in a pretty good copy of the first American edition. ( )
