Young Bloomsbury

After studying at Oxford University and the
Courtauld Institute, Nino Strachey worked as
a curator for the National Trust and English
Heritage. Her first book, Rooms of Their Own,
explored the homes of three writers linked to the
Bloomsbury Group, revealing changing attitudes
towards sexuality and gender in the 1920s
and 30s. Nino is the last member of the Strachey
family to have grown up at Sutton Court in
Somerset, home of the Stracheys for over 300
years. She lives in West London with her husband
and child, surrounded by the displaced portraits
of her Strachey relations. Her relative Lytton was
the first of many Stracheys to make their
way to Bloomsbury. Follow her on Twitter @NinoStrachey.
