In this early collection of eight short stories by Virginia Woolf conventional notions of plot and character are abandoned for a stream of consciousness, almost dream-like and experimental form of prose. Readers while find the relative brevity of this volume, and the stories within it, helpful in overcoming any unfamiliarity with this style of writing. "Monday or Tuesday: Eight Stories" was first published in 1921 and includes the following stories: "A Haunted House," "A Society," "Monday or Tuesday", "An Unwritten Novel," "The String Quartet," "Blue & Green," "Kew Gardens," and "The Mark on the Wall".

In recent years, Woolf's fiction, feminism and high-minded sensibilities have earned her an ever-growing audience of readers. This splendid collection offers those readers not only the inestimable pleasures of the stories themselves, but excellent entree into the larger body of Woolf's work.
Virginia Woolf (1842-1941) was best known for her novels Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse. Throughout her life, she suffered through mental illness (what we would call bipolar disorder these days). She committed suicide, drowning herself at the age of 59.
