Trunk Full of Bloomsbury Letters to Be Auctioned

What is believed to maybe be the last significant trunkload of Bloomsbury letters is about to be auctioned off on September 3rd.   The collection, containing about 700 letters were all sent to Helen Anrep, a friend and supporter of many artists and writers (though not one herself); they showcase  correspondence from many people including Vanessa Bell, Roger Fry, and Virginia Woolf.  Woolf’s letters exhibit her famed sharp tongue with lines like “The female oaf is utterly intolerable.”
