An oft-cited analysis of the biographical, literary, and cultural implications of Woolf's lifelong quarrel with grieving. "…our own refusals to mourn owes much . . . to the transition from Late-Victorian effusiveness to modern prudery and reticence which Virginia Woolf and others like her have made for us. Her quarrel with grieving is very much our quarrel...". Mark Spilka, is a professor and scholar of English literature at Brown University.
