‘Someone had blundered’.

 

Shouldn’t it be: ‘Mrs Ramsay said she would knit the stocking herself’? 😃

Oh, the poor child in marketing at Penguin who committed this error in the email offering me digital access to the Bechdel edition:

 

“Mrs. Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself.” So begins To the Lighthouse, Virginia Woolf’s masterful and highly relevant meditation on memory, grief, the brutalities of war, and the tensions of domestic life.

Hi again All,

 

This is, of course, a strategy to sell more books. The Genius and Ink essay collection, with what looked to me like a different cover from the first edition of this recent collection, flagged here last week by Marie-Claire, was essentially the same thing.  It allows Penguin to sell more Woolf and Bechdel to promote her Are You My Mother? and Patricia Lockwood to get publicity which, as a poet, must be complicated. And if it brings more Woolfians to the table (and those who appreciate the tactile quality of a hard copy), as Leanna's response suggests it might, let's all applaud! (Although I am sympathetic to those who were expecting an original work).

In terms of Bechdel's interpretation of the novel, Mrs Ramsay and Lily look a little too similar perhaps ...

 

Helen

Thanks for all this info, everyone (& apologies for saying Intro when I should have looked more carefully and seen Lockwood’s Foreword is the new textual element). The cover looks fun, but I think a screenshot will save me the money that can be spent on an actually ‘new’ book!

I have a "Deluxe" edition of Lady Chatterley's Lover. As a somewhat "youth," the comic strip element is intriguing, and the cover material and rough pages make for a nice tactile reading experience (maybe a "luxe" edition is more apt). And as someone who loves Bechdel and the way To the Lighthouse features so prominently in her graphic memoir Are You My Mother?, ...I'm very tempted to purchase this edition.

Dear all,

Just saw the new edition of TTL is out today on my twitter feed and got excited again by the Bechdel cover illustrations--Here's Bechdel's short blog <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/dykestowatchoutfor.com/deluxe-edition/__;!!KGKeukY!zrNHGF_egnsZ__mHNakNc8qT17BSM5xd0J8UCNfgWAfSses4v7RWeU2Td6JnMVjeHINrBlVad54OFS-knEIYgD0$>  on her decisions. My brain tricked me for a second and I thought Bechdel had created an entire graphic novel out of the text!

All best,
Amal
