Originally published bi-monthly in Good Housekeeping between December 1931 and December 1932, the six essays in The London Scene provide Virginia Woolf’s musings on the street hauntings of which she was most found.
Now Daunt Books is republishing the essays with an introduction by Hermione Lee and original black and white illustrations. The 96-page hardback is available for £10.99.
