Timeline
Two of her ancestors, Thomas Sackville (1536-1608), and Charles Sackville (1638-1706) were distinguished poets. Vita, as she was known to her friends and family, was educated at home. She became a prolific writer, and her published work spans a number of different genres.
Daughter of Lionel Edward Sackville-West (1867-1928) and Victoria Josepha Dolores Catalina Sackville-West (1862-1936).
Victoria Mary Sackville-West was born on 9th March 1892 at Knole in Kent, her family's ancestral home. Her family was both aristocratic, (they held the title of Earl of Dorset), and literary.
They had two sons, Ben, born 6th August 1914, and Nigel, born 19th January 1917.
Dedicated one novel, "The Dragon in Shallow Waters" (Collins 1921), to 'L' (Lushka), Vita's pet name for Violet Trefusis. It was written during a stormy period of Vita's life when she was totally involved with Trefusis. The Vita/Violet situation lasted for a number of years.
Her literary output includes family history, ('Knole and Sackvilles', which was first published in 1922), and verse.
Wrote two distinguished travel books, "Passenger to Teheran" (1926) and "Twelve Days" (1928), both very collectable. These books recount her experiences travelling both to and inside Persia in 1926/27, while "Twelve Days" illustrates her own photographs.
Her poem 'The Land' won the Hawthornden Prize in 1927.
The novelist Virginia Woolf was a close friend of Vita's and Virginia used Vita as the inspiration for the eponymous protagonist of Woolf's 1928 novel 'Orlando'.
In 1930 Vita and Harold bought Sissinghurst Castle in Kent, where they created their famous garden. Vita was also romantically linked to Violet Trefusis.
Vita's own novels include 'The Edwardians' (1930) and 'All Passion Spent' (1931).
She was made a Companion of Honour (CH) in the 1948 King's New Year Honours List for her services to literature.
Grandmother of Vanessa Pepita Nicolson, born 1956 (Lionel's daughter); Juliet, born 1954, Adam, born 1957 and Rebecca, born 1963 (Nigel's children).
Vita's last novel, 'No Signposts in the Sea', was published in 1961 and takes the form of a journal written by Edmund Carr, a Fleet Street journalist taking an ocean cruise.
"Portrait of a Marriage" by Nigel Nicolson (Vita's son) (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1973) gives the full story of this period of the Nicolsons' lives, taken from an autobiographical manuscript found after Vita Sackville-West's death. The book has also been made into a Exxon Mobile Masterpiece Theatre mini-series.
Her third novel, "Challenge", was not published in England until 1974 due to the sensational topic.
'All Passion Spent' was dramatized for television by the BBC in 1986. In this dramatization Wendy Hiller played the part of Lady Slane.
