Woolf’s best-selling spoof biography of the poet Elizabeth Barrett-Browning’s lap dog, Flush, has until recently received relatively little serious critical attention. Flush: A Biography has been read as an allegory of class war, lesbian love, the plight of women writers, and much else besides. In the context of the recent rise in animal studies, this work is ripe for reappraisal.

Ships promptly in a corrugated mailer with the book wrapped in both craft paper and multiple layers of bubble wrap.
