Just like the Beatles, we said “hello” and we said “goodbye” at receptions that marked both ends of the 34th Annual International Conference on Virginia Woolf: Woolf and Dissidence.

The hellos were said July 4 at King’s College London. The goodbyes were said July 11 at the University of Sussex as the five-day conference came to a close. Under the sunny skies of London and Brighton, both were marked by smiles, laughter, hugs, and promises to meet again.

Here are some photos from the occasions.
