Gaiety and Chilliness - the Bloomsbury Group
In Edwardian London, a group of writers frequently met at 46 Gordon Square, in the neighbourhood called Bloomsbury. They included the novelists E M Forster and Virginia Woolf , the biographer Lytton Strachey , and the economist John
Maynard Keynes. Committed to a freedom of expression and a new view of old ways, these philosophers, artists and writers made waves which lapped English culture for years. Frank Delaney recalls these controversial, sometimes brilliant creatures with the help of their biographers and students. Producer Stella Hanson
