[Vwoolf] Not sure this article was posted to the list

[Jean Mallinson]

The headline is misleading: the article discusses not why she was not as 
fragile but what are some reasons for thinking her not as fragile. The 
author took a long time getting around to the announced subject. I 
expected more robust evidence of her strength ; there is plenty to be 
said on the subject. I suppose the approach irritates me because I have 
never thought of her as "fragile".
Cheers! I am just now reading and loving Becoming Virginia Woolf.
