Near enough to walk to on a fine day… Marble Hill House in Twickenham.

When the sky puts on a show 🌈

Marble Hill is the last surviving glimpse of the elegant 18th-century villas that once lined the Thames between Richmond and Hampton Court, and last week, it was the pot of gold at the end of a rather spectacular rainbow

Next in our live online Virginia Woolf Season:
Rooms in The Waves (1931) with Ellie Mitchell

‘But stories that follow people into their private rooms are difficult.’

Virginia Woolf’s 1931 novel The Waves is one such difficult story. Or rather, it is a novel which tells several difficult stories. This lecture will explore the rooms into which the novel follows its characters, and will examine the ways in which Woolf uses those rooms to shape, contain, and organise the novel’s flowing narrative.

Like literary surveyors, we will tour the schoolroom, Bernard’s college rooms, the dining room, Louis’s attic room, the party room, Susan’s country rooms, the mysterious bedroom of the interludes, and more. What do these rooms have to tell us about the people who live in them, or visit them, or move through them? What does Bernard mean when he reflects in the novel’s final episode that ‘There are many rooms’, and thus ‘many Bernards’?
