Description du livre
Virginia Woolf Classic Collection brings together eight of the most influential works from one of the foremost literary innovators of the 20th century. This essential anthology includes The Voyage Out, Night and Day, Jacob’s Room, Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando, The Common Reader: First Series, and A Room of One’s Own. From groundbreaking novels that pioneered the stream-of-consciousness technique to essays that redefined feminist criticism, Woolf’s writing continues to resonate with readers today for its intellectual depth, poetic beauty, and emotional precision.
Across these pages, Woolf examines the shifting roles of women, the fragmentation of identity, and the quiet struggles of ordinary lives. Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse stand as masterworks of psychological realism, while Orlando and A Room of One’s Own explore gender, art, and autonomy with bold experimentation. In Jacob’s Room, she dismantles traditional narrative form, and in The Common Reader, she offers incisive reflections on literature itself. Each work in this collection showcases Woolf’s ability to observe the world with nuance, compassion, and profound insight.
Whether you are a long-time admirer or a curious newcomer, this collection offers a comprehensive entry into Woolf’s literary universe. It reveals a writer who was not only a stylistic pioneer but also a fierce critic of societal norms. Rich in imagination, intellect, and inner truth, the Virginia Woolf Classic Collection is an indispensable addition to any serious reader’s library.
