To the Lighthouse

Following the tradition of modernist novelists, the plot
of To the Lighthouse (1927) is secondary to its philosophical introspection - the novel includes little dialogue and almost no action; most of it is written as thoughts and observations. Among the book's many themes are those of loss, subjectivity, the nature of art and the problem of perception.

About the author

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) ranks among the major literary figures of all time. With her novels, including To the Lighthouse, Mrs. Dalloway, and The Waves, she reinvented the art of story-telling and shaped modern culture's self-understanding to the present day. In landmark essays, letters, and diaries, Woolf insisted on a woman's right to tell her story on her own terms.
