Virginia Woolf in Rodmell - early September, 1931

from The diary of Virginia Woolf, page 42:

I am taking, this is the last day - my week's holiday, with very good results. [...] We listened to a Bach concert with the clouds thickening purple over Caburn, the lights springing, & the pale cadaverous glow in the chalk pit.
