Bloomsbury
Literary London district
Bloomsbury is a district in central London associated with literary and intellectual life.
The Bloomsbury Group was an influential circle of early 20th-century writers, artists, and thinkers—including Virginia Woolf, E.M.
Forster, and John Maynard Keynes—known for progressive views on art, sexuality, and society.
As an adjective, Bloomsbury suggests refined, bohemian intellectualism: a very Bloomsbury sensibility.
