Question
An essay contrasts the “immunity” felt by Trollope and Austen with this event’s intrusion into the writer’s daily lives, and wonders if this event will end the classism of the title “Leaning Tower.” Concerns about this event inspired a three-years-late reply to a letter “perhaps unique in the history of human correspondence” because it’s from an educated man asking a woman’s opinion. An essay about this event asks how we can free young Englishmen “from the machine” and ends by quoting Thomas Browne’s “half-forgotten” remark that “the (*) huntsmen are up in America.” The leadup to this event inspired Three Guineas. This event led to the relocation of Hogarth Press when the Woolfs’ home in Mecklenburgh Square was destroyed. For 10 points, Virginia Woolf’s suicide is often attributed to despair brought by what event that inspired “Thoughts on Peace in an Air Raid?” ■END■
