Mas em alguns est�o concentradas caracter�sticas de seus romances mais experimentais: a rejei��o do realismo liter�rio o uso de t�cnicas narrativas pouco ortodoxas a experimenta��o com a estrutura e a sintaxe. Em edi��o bil�ngue e com acabamento de luxo a presente colet�nea re�ne os melhores desses contos. ""O legado"" pertence ao conjunto dos seus contos mais convencionais mas serve de contraste para melhor aprecia��o das ousadas t�cnicas que caracterizam os outros quatro aqui inclu�dos � ""A marca na pa"" ""Objetos s�lidos"" ""A dama no espelho"" e ""Kew Gardens"".

She notes that many people are familiar with their romantic story but have never read their poetry. She then moves on to critique the works of the Brownings. Woolf suggests that Robert Browning’s work has lost its vigor and significance and his style is considered verbose.  <br /> <br /> As for Elizabeth Barrett Browning Woolf states that her work is largely unread and unexamined with her style being seen as slipshod and her mind as confused and excessive. Woolf then focuses on “Aurora Leigh†describing it as a masterpiece in embryo. She suggests that the novel-poem’s genius is still in a prenatal stage waiting for the final stroke of creative power to bring it into being. She also discusses the character Aurora’s struggle with the expectations of her society. "If therefore we take 'Aurora Leigh' from the shelf and open it it is not so much in order to read it as to muse with kindly condescension over this token of bygone fashion: it is not a book but a dusty mantle with fringes and furbelows that our grandmothers actually wore; a cluster of wax fruit that they stood in a glass case on the drawing-room table among albums views of Jerusalem and handsome models of the Taj Mahal carved in alabaster." 678-679 p.
