<p class="MsoNormal">I have not used the Kobo very much, but, I find it OK. They have rearranged<br>
the essays, so that the rediscovered ones in Vol. 6 have been slotted in<br>
where they should have been in earlier vols. I agree with Madelyn that "it <br>
is<br>
useful for searching and then double checking with a reliable print source".<br>
The main problem I have found is with the diary: it is not always <br>
immediately obvious to which year an entry belongs.<br>
<br>
Since it is on my phone, I expect to be using it more and more, and the <br>
CD-ROM, which cost so much so many years ago, less.<br>

Stuart: Thanks for this reference. Some of the e-books of Woolf are very<br>
inaccurate; others are quite good. How do you rate this Kobo edition?<br>
<br>
Kobo:<br>
<a href="https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/virginia-woolf-the-complete-works-2">https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/virginia-woolf-the-complete-works-2</a><br>
<br>
Annaliese, I think it's worth the time to read the full text of the<br>
diaries 1927-31 from the full 5-vol. edition, rather than just searching<br>
for keywords, so you get a sense of the context, details, complexity,<br>
etc. Also some terms are not picked up in a search, when for for example<br>
VW uses abbreviations (inconsistently, because it's a diary). One can<br>
miss key entries.<br>
<br>
The Writer's Diary is just extracts from the longer diary. The full<br>
diary is really interesting and a wonderful education in itself.<br>
<br>
Then perhaps do a digital search afterwards to see if it picks up<br>
anything else.<br>
<br>
Secondary sources: Zwerdling's book on VW and the Real World and Leonard<br>
Woolf's memoirs might be useful. The League of Nations is a really<br>
important topic in the politics of the 1920s and a crucial context for<br>
understanding Woolf; good luck with it!<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
