14226Passenger to Teheran -- First Edition by Vita Sackville-West. London: The Hogarth Press 1926.181 pages 32 Photographic Plates Sackville-West was an English author poet and aristocrat. "Passenger to Teheran" is an account of Sackville-West's journey to visit her husband Harold Nicolson who was serving as a diplomat in Teheran. Along her route she sailed the Nile stopped in India before sailing the Persian Gulf to Iraq through the mountains to Teheran Iran. Her return to England was equally slow-paced and she traveled dangerous circumstances through the revolution in Russia and Poland. A classic work that showcases Sackville-West's humor and sense of adventure. A good copy.<br/><br/>Both Sackville-West and her husband had same-sex relationships as did some of the Bloomsbury Group of writers and artists with whom they had connections. Her relationship with Virginia Woolf began in 1925 and ended in 1935 reaching its height between 1925-28 which was when Woolf printed this book on her Hogarth Press. Sackville-West loved to travel frequently going to France Spain and to visit Nicolson in Persia. This book was based on her Persia trips these trips were emotionally draining for Woolf who missed Sackville-West intensely. Woolf's novel To the Lighthouse noteworthy for its theme of longing for someone absent was partly inspired by Sackville-West's frequent absences. unknown books

16624WOOLF Virginia. Memories of A Working Women's Guild Printed in in The Yale Review: A National Quarterly Autumn 1930. New Haven: Yale University Press 1930. Large quarto. Pages 121-138; 280 pages total. Original Wrappers side-stapled in original blue printed wrappers. This was the very first printing of Memories of a Working Women's Guild which would be later revised and reprinted as the introduction to Life as We Have Known It for the Hogarth Press and collected in The Captain's Death Bed 1950; Selections from Her Essays 1966; Collected Essays Vol. 4 1967. Woolf regularly held meetings for her local branch of the Women's Co-operative Guild whose objectives included the establishment of minimum wages and maternity benefits. In Memoirs of A Working Women's Guild Woolf engages in a discussion of the social movement and her position of privilege wherein she offers a hopeful vision of cross-class literary discourse while acknowledging she sits as a "benevolent spectator" to the actions of the guild. Woolf positions the memoirs in Life as We Have Known It as a record of human strength: "These Letters are only fragments. These voices are beginning only now to emerge from silence into half-articulate speech. These lives are still half-hidden in profound obscurity. To write even what is written has been a task of labor and difficulty. The writing has been done in kitchens at odds and ends of time in the midst of distractions and obstacles-- but really there is no need for me in a letter addressed to you to lay stress upon the hardships of working women's lives."
