In 1917 along with Leonard Woolf she founded the Hogarth Press, which subsequently published Virginia&#8217;s novels along with works by T.S. Eliot, Sigmund Freud, and others. Throughout her life, Woolf was plagued by periodic nervous breakdowns and associated illnesses. Though this instability often affected her social life, her literary productivity continued with few breaks until her suicide on 28 March 1941. After the final attack of mental illness Woolf put on her overcoat, filled its pockets with stones, and walked into the River Ouse near her home where she drowned. Woolf&#8217;s suicide, like Sylvia Plath&#8217;s, have much colored the interpretation of both her work and her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Description:<\/strong> <span class=\"first3words\"> First UK Edition.
