The Cave of Harmony was a well-known club of 1920s London that served, as Jane Marcus describes, as “a community ‘room of one’s own’ for the intellectual avant-garde of the twenties in London, where Jews and radicals joined cranks, vegetarians, lesbians, blacks, homosexuals, mystics, Quakers and poets”. Radclyffe Hall and her partner Una Troubridge frequented it, and it may well have served as the model for both the title of Hall’s most (in)famous book, The Well of Loneliness, but also Le Narcisse, the Parisian club visited by Stephen and Mary in Chapter 48 (Marcus Virginia Woolf, 167).
