After the death of their father they have moved with their two brothers, Thoby and Adrian, from genteel Kensington to the “bohemian hinterland” of Bloomsbury, where they further scandalise polite society by hosting gatherings at which mixed groups of unchaperoned young people drink and argue about art and literature until the early hours. When the novel begins in 1905 both Vanessa and Virginia are still the Miss Stephens.
