Abstract
The
authors offer an analysis of mental illness in the work of a key
twentieth century author: Virginia Woolf. A critical review of her
literary legacy allows us to get closer to what might be one of the
most intense literary portrayals of illness and its metaphors and, at
the same time, to the representations, euphemisms, silences, and
monsters depicted in the chapters of her life and in the unique voice
of an essential author.
