Monday or Tuesday is a 1921 short story collection by Virginia Woolf published by The Hogarth Press. 1000 copies were printed with four full-page woodcuts by Vanessa Bell.[1] Leonard Woolf called it one of the worst printed books ever published because of the typographical mistakes in it.[2] Most mistakes were corrected for the US edition published by Harcourt Brace.[3] It contains eight stories:
- "A Haunted House"
- "A Society"
- "Monday or Tuesday"
- "An Unwritten Novel" – previously appeared in the London Mercury in 1920
- "The String Quartet"
- "Blue & Green"
- "Kew Gardens" – previously published separately
- "The Mark on the Wall" – previously appeared in Two Stories (1917)
Six of the stories were later published by Leonard Woolf in the posthumous collection A Haunted House (those excluded were "A Society" and "Blue & Green").[3]
