Saturday 14 June 1919 A very severe review of Murry, a severe review of [TS] Eliot, appeared in the [Times] on Thursday. [...] Poor Murry pretended not to mind, but much like a small boy sticking it out that caning doesn't hurt. A poem is a very sensitive part to be beaten. virginia woolf, diary Do. 26. Juni 2025 17:09

People buy papers at a great rate; but except for an occasional buzz round a newspaper boy & a number of shop girls provided with The Evening News in the train one feels nothing different in the atmosphere. The general state perhaps is one of dazed surfeit; here we've had one great relief after another; you hear the paper boys calling out that Turkey has surrendered, or Austria given up, & the mind doesn't do very much with it; was the whole thing too remote & meaningless to come home to one, either in action or in ceasing to act? Katherine Murry, whom I saw on Wednesday, inclines to think that most people have grasped neither war nor peace. Two or three weeks ago I heard a citizen holding forth to a lady in the train, who asked him whether he thought there would be peace. "I hope not. ... We're giving them everything they want & getting nothing." Since then it is difficult to see how the most bloodthirsty citizens can squeeze anything more out of Germany. The Kaiser still wears a phantom kind of crown. Otherwise there is revolution, & a kind of partial awakenment, one fancies, on the part of the people to the unreality of the whole affair. Suppose we wake up too? virginia woolf, diary Di. 6. Mai 2025 16:40

... marvelous for the immediacy and lack of self-consciousness with which Woolf transcribes her daily life.... No torment or psychic struggle here; indeed at one point Virginia reflects that she lacks an 'inner life.' But whatever it is she has instead is much more interesting.
