"You see, even after all these years, I wonder if you really loved
me." Vanessa and Virginia are sisters, best friends, bitter rivals,
and artistic collaborators. As children, they fight for the
attention of their overextended mother, their brilliant but
difficult father, and their adored brother, Thoby. As young women,
they support each other through a series of devastating deaths,
then emerge in bohemian Bloomsbury, bent on creating new lives and
groundbreaking works of art. Through everything--marriage, lovers,
loss, madness, children, success and failure--the sisters remain
the closest of co-conspirators. But they also betray each
other.
In this lyrical, impressionistic account, written as a love letter
and an elegy from Vanessa to Virginia, Sellers imagines her way
into the heart of the lifelong relationship between the writer
Virginia Woolf and the painter Vanessa Bell. With sensitivity and
fidelity to what is known of both lives, Sellers has created a
powerful portrait of sibling rivalry.
