From Pixels to Paper: Mad Cave Studios Brings Virginia Woolf to Print

A Luminous Portrait: Liuba Gabriele’s Visual Retelling of a Literary Icon
As part of Mad Cave’s latest English print releases, the graphic novel offers readers an emotional LGBTQIA-focused retelling of their semi-secret love affair, drawing from Woolf’s novels and letters exchanged by the pair to capture the intensity of her inner world. Gabriele brings striking depth to their relationship through expressive colorwork and intimate storytelling.
Publisher Synopsis:
“An emotional and vibrant retelling of the famous author’s passions and torments, as well as her ardent relationship with Vita Sackville-West.
Virginia Woolf ended her own life in March 1941, driven by the strength of her grief for the world entering another war. She was a woman full of turbulent emotions and desires, ones which brought her both great joy and suffering.
Told through loose connections with some of Woolf’s most beloved novels and using quotations from letters written by Woolf and Sackville-West, this graphic novel brings color and texture to this semi-secret love affair and boldly renders the waves and lulls of Woolf’s extraordinary mind.”
Why the Physical Edition of the Virginia Woolf Graphic Novel is a Must-Have
Mad Cave Studios Editor, Sarah Brunstad, said: “I love this book, and so will anyone who has also had their life changed by a Virginia Woolf novel. Liuba Gabriele’s sparse text often pulls directly from Woolf’s personal writings, and paired with her wildly expressive colors, the result is a thoughtful and intimate view into the life of a woman who changed the world with the power of her pen.”
