Eerily possessive, charismatic, manipulative and brilliant, Virginia has always lived in the shelter of Vanessa's constant attention and encouragement. But the landscape shifts when Vanessa unexpectedly falls in love and her sister feels dangerously abandoned. Together, this sparkling coterie of artists and intellectuals throw away convention and embrace the wild freedom of being young, single bohemians in London. Leonard Woolf is still a civil servant in Ceylon, and John Maynard Keynes is looking for a job. Forster has finished his first novel but does not like the title. Lytton Strachey has not published anything. Virginia Woolf's book review has just been turned down by The Times. Each member of the group will go on to earn fame and success, but so far Vanessa Bell has never sold a painting. And at the centre of the charmed circle are the devoted, gifted sisters: Vanessa, the painter and Virginia, the writer. There they bring together a glittering circle of brilliant, artistic friends who will come to be known as the legendary Bloomsbury Group. Vanessa, Virginia, Thoby and Adrian are leaving behind their childhood home and taking a house in the leafy heart of avant-garde Bloomsbury. The city is alight with change and the Stephen siblings are at the forefront.
