The World Broke in Two tells the story of 1922, a pivotal year in literary history. In his talk, Bill Goldstein will describe the intellectual and personal journeys that year of four of the key writers of the 20th century – Virginia Woolf, T. S. Eliot, D. H. Lawrence and E. M. Forster – and examine the influence on them of James Joyce’s Ulysses and Proust’s In Search of Lost Time. The New York Times Book Review called The World Broke in Two “Fresh . . . significant . . . comprehensive and exuberant . . . entirely full of life.”
