    What is unusual about all of Virginia Woolf's books?

    Question #36578. Asked by sequoianoir.

    Linus_337

    Is this fiendishly cryptic?

    Does it relate to the titles of the works themselves or the manner of their production, or neither of these things?

    Have they all been made into films?

    This piece of furniture would have helped her with her writing.

    Hi Dark Bark. I lost the question numbers of the three which you had ongoing!

    I think the answer is that she wrote her books at a stand-up writing desk.

    How many million miles am I away from the correct answer?

    YO! YO! GO Linus!

    She wrote her books STANDING UP.
    Apparently it was to do with her sister who was an artist and, like most artists/painters, they stand up to paint at an easel.
    She somehow thought that it was more workmanlike and inspirational to do the same.

    What is unusual about the metal Nitinol?

    This astonishingly prolific, though not very literary writer, produced many books or stories on which films were based. These include one about a girl, some puppets, and a misanthrope; one about an unusual cat; one about a doomed baseball player; and one about a disaster involving a certain "reversal." Who was this author, and what are the films I've described?
