Summary
In Flush: A Biography, Virginia Woolf presents a delightful and imaginative exploration of the life of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's beloved cocker spaniel, Flush. Using the dog’s perspective, Woolf artfully weaves together themes of social hierarchy, class, freedom, and the complexities of human relationships, all while narrating the love story between Browning and poet Robert Browning. The biography offers a whimsical yet poignant reflection on Victorian society and the often-overlooked experiences of animals. Both charming and profound, this work showcases Woolf's narrative ingenuity and deep empathy for her subject, making it an essential read for both Woolf fans and animal lovers alike.
