Dear Woolfian,

Please take good care...I am sad about Laura. Her brilliance will be with us forever.

Best,

Dear Woolfians,

It's heartbreaking news. The obituary from the Faculty of English at Oxford is particularly lovely<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.english.ox.ac.uk/article/professor-laura-marcus__;!!KGKeukY!g1q3T4QfiAfehLPnYdus2Sm6AFTFUI3vhTiOREpuYdFcoh30yXjXz6uEqawNEgebUYg$>.

I am so sorry to think she is gone and I am especially sorry for your loss, Angeliki, and for the loss of all those who knew her better than I. What a brilliant woman.

Yours,

Anne

Dear Woolfians,

it is with great sorrow that I have to announce the horrible news of the death of Laura Marcus, on 22nd September 2021 at the age of 65. She died of pancreatic cancer diagnosed just two months ago.
Laura was an English Professor at Oxford, and a distinguished Woolf and Modernism scholar. She was also a very warm, witty and generous person as the people who knew her will agree.
Hers is a great loss for her family,  academia, and the Woolf community.
Laura was my supervisor at Sussex years ago and a friend ever since, so I feel her loss very acutely. But I am sure many of the people on this list knew and loved her and will be equally devastated by the news.
Rest in peace, dear Laura.

love to all
Angeliki
