[Vwoolf] Unherd.com, Will Lloyd's view on Virginia Woolf’s Bloomsbury bust: Culture Clash 18 February 2022

[Neverow, Vara S.]

Will Lloyd quotes from Jacob's Room. One might compare Lloyd's reflections to a review of Jacob's Room from 3 November 1922:

Extracts from reviews of Mrs Woolf's previous books are provided very generously by the publisher, and it is commonly agreed that she is interesting.

But I do regret the targeting of her bust in the Square. Seems to me that if we made misogyny a cancelable crime we'd have enough scrap iron to rebuild the Titanic...

Whenever I see this genre of article, I am reminded of a point Lauren Elkin makes in Flâneuse: that Woolf is “the favourite target of literary men beefing up their virility by slagging her off.”

Never fails!

I am not going to pay 95p for the pleasure of commenting on this piece of tripe. It is in some ways, I suppose, admirable that places like unHerd exist to offer opportunities for illiterates to publish nonsense!

Dear Woolfians,



Incidentally - please see an (unheard?) UnHerd.com post below - for a smile, or not a smile?

A smackerel it is (or ?).
