<div dir="ltr">Thanks to all who've provided such a lively birthday tribute to Virginia today! I'm taking cake to my Bloomsbury Modernism class this afternoon in her honor! Truly appreciated Sally Greene's double tribute to Woolf and Ursula K.

I come down on the side of those of us who are delighted to see VW in a<br>
doodle that will be seen, even if for a few seconds, by millions of<br>
people.? As for the doodle itself, I like the color of the leaves and<br>
Virginia's blouse.? It's subtle and haunting as a shade.? Like Diana<br>
Swanson, I also thought about /The Years/, especially one introduction<br>
to an autumn when leaves were being violently blown about by heavy winds.<br>

On Woolf's birthday, and in memory of the late, great Ursula K. Le Guin, I offer this passage from Le Guin's wonderful book The Wave of the Mind:<br>
<br>
"What is the rhythm the silent reader hears? What is the rhythm the prose writer follows?<br>
<br>
"While she was writing her last novel, Pointz Hall, which she refers to below as PH, and which when it was published became Between the Acts, Virginia Woolf wrote in her diary:<br>
<br>
"'It is the rhythm of a book that, by running in the head, winds one into a ball: and so jades one, The rhythm of PH (the last chapter) became so obsessive that I heard it, perhaps used it, in every sentence I spoke. By reading the notes for memoirs I broke this up. The thyrhm of the notes is far freer and looser. Two days of writing in that rhythm has completely refreshed me. So I go back to PH tomorrow. This I think is rather profound.' (Virginia Woolf, Diary, 17 November 1940)"<br>

Just writing again to note that Virginia Woolf is currently the 9th top<br>
trending term on Twitter, between popular hazelnut Nutella, and<br>
professional wrestling pundit Vince McMahon. Nice to see the Doodle did<br>
some good, at any rate.<br>
<br>
<br>
Wishing joyous Woolfian celebrations to all,<br>
