This refreshing guide offers Bloomsbury fans a unique insight into the lives of the most innovative and important group of pioneering Modernist artists, writers and designers of the 20th century. Their London homes were destroyed by war-time bombs, but Virginia and Leonard Woolf's house, Monks House, in Rodmell and Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant's domestic idyll at Charleston provide a lasting and unique picture of the Bloomsbury Group in the early decades of the last century.
The Sussex homes where they lived and worked for more than 50 years stand as a testament to the spirit of their remarkably creative muse. Bloomsbury expert Simon Watney examines the enduring importance of these Sussex bohemians through their furnishings, decorations and gardens at Charleston and Monks House and the fascinating murals of nearby Berwick church
