Life In Squares

The complete script to the three part BBC television drama Life In Squares, (starring James Norton, Phoebe Fox, Eve Best and Lydia Leonard) exploring the tangled and complex loves of the Bloomsbury Group, includes an introduction by the screenwriter, Amanda Coe. Vanessa Bell, the heart of this set of writers, artists, philosophers and intellectuals, has an incredibly close and often difficult relationship with her sister, Virginia Woolf. When Vanessa falls in love, she must balance her role as Virginia’s confidant and carer with her new role as lover, wife and mother. Vanessa’s beliefs about creative and sexual freedom are revolutionary but often difficult to live with, as infidelity, passion and love pushes and pulls at her happiness.
