Hi Alice,

</div>
<div>The Paris Review interviewed de Beauvoir in 1965 & this is an excerpt from the interview. She loved Flush!

<span>Hi everyone,</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>There is a reference to VW in the 2019 novel *Lost Children Archive*, which</span><br>
<span>was longlisted for the Booker Prize and is a *New York Times Book Review* top</span><br>
<span>pick for 2019. I?m currently reading the book for my LatinX Literature</span><br>
<span>class, in which I?m a student, and I noted that, near the back of the</span><br>
<span>volume, the author has included a section entitled ?Works Cited (Notes on</span><br>
<span>Sources)?. There follows a list about the author?s ?dialogue with many</span><br>
<span>different texts,? and number four of this list states:</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Some references to other literary works are spread nearly invisibly across</span><br>
<span>both narrative voices as well as the *Elegies for Lost Children* and are</span><br>
<span>meant to appear as thin ?threads? of literary allusion.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span> One such thread alludes to Virginia Woolf?s *Mrs. Dalloway*,</span><br>
<span>wherein the technique of shifting narrative viewpoints via an object moving</span><br>
<span>in the sky was, I believe, first invented. I repurpose the technique in</span><br>
<span>point-of-view shifts that occur when the eyes of two characters ?meet? in a</span><br>
<span>single point in the sky, by looking at the same object: airplane, eagles,</span><br>
<span>thunderclouds, or lightning. (358)</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Beyond this Woolf reference, the author (Valeria Luiselli) enumerates the</span><br>
<span>?allusions? she sprinkles throughout her novel. I admit that when I first</span><br>
<span>saw this list I thought: O ye of little faith in critics who notice</span><br>
<span>unprompted! But perhaps the Works Cited builds upon a theme of ?documents?</span><br>
<span>and ?documentality??</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Whatever the case, noteworthy, I think, to see Woolf?s presence in a</span><br>
<span>contemporary Mexican-American immigration and border narrative. The novel</span><br>
<span>is about two children, on a road trip with their parents from New York to</span><br>
<span>Arizona, who are trying to make sense of their parents? deteriorating</span><br>
<span>relationship, as well as the accounts they hear on the news of children</span><br>
<span>being detained at the border or getting lost in the desert while attempting</span><br>
<span>to cross it.</span><br>

<span>Dear Woolfians,</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>I was having lunch with a colleague in political science last week who's writing a book on political ethics which will include a chapter on Woolf. She asked me if I knew whether or not Simone de Beauvoir read Woolf or referenced her directly, and my
first thought was ?I?ve read the answer to that on the Woolf lists?! But I didn?t want to pass off any half remembered knowledge without reaching out to the community and getting my facts right. If anyone could help me out, that?d be wonderful. Also, of
course, if you know of scholarship putting the two in dialogue.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Thanks</span><br>

<span></span><br>
<span>So where are we with the spelling of Woolf's Sussex cottage these days? Monk's? Monks'? Monks? Does it matter?</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>I'm leaning toward Monks because that's how its spelled on the gate of the house, not to mention Woolf's own idiosyncratic disregard of apostrophes. .</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>That said, I believe she was not consistent about the spelling-to no one's surprise, I'm sure.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Is there any consensus on this grave issue?</span><br>
