About this listen

In this short story, Virgina Woolf writes about a “steam of consciousness” of a person enjoying music. Our narrator hears a string quartet and is entranced by the players, their movements, and their song.

Virginia can do little wrong, and whilst there is no other reader of Virginia Woolf to equal Juliet Stevenson, this very passionate interpretation
By Andrea Geordani is quite haunting, her rhythms musical, even though the accent is quite strong - its strange how the most english of writers fits Geordani ‘s voice so well. Oh surprise,surprise, it must the words ! A MUST LISTEN .

Curiously beautiful, an absolute gem !
