The name. While I was stumbling around the net looking for something for my tumblr I came across The Bloomsbury Group. They were a group of artists, writers, intellectuals who held conversations together in Bloomsbury throughout the 20th Century. Although Jon and myself are none of those things, I thought the play on words suited what we wanted to do with our Book Club. We are two socially conscious young men. Why not the Bloomsbury Two? The most famous members of the Bloomsbury Group were Virginia Woolf, John Maynard Keynes, E.M. Foster, and Lytton Strachey. Thats some heady company.
