Mitchell said: Virginia Woolf, 'On not knowing Greek' 1925 I read this while I was reading Aeschylus' Agamemnon using the same Lexicon Virginia Woolf used the LS intermediate which is ancient. Virginia Woolf's To The Lighthouse is in my short list of must read modern classics. Postscript: I was also reading Helma Dik on word order.
