A modernist masterpiece exploring the inner lives of the Ramsay family and their guests on a Scottish island, spanning two separate occasions a decade apart. Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse, widely regarded as her finest novel, is a remarkably original work that delves into the thoughts and actions of the members of the Ramsay family and their guests. Set in the family's summer holiday home on a Scottish island, overlooking a bay with a lighthouse, the story unfolds across two distinct time periods, separated by ten years. Woolf's experimental style pushes the boundaries of our understanding of the world and ourselves, making To the Lighthouse one of the most exquisitely crafted novels in the English language. Through her innovative use of the stream of consciousness technique, Woolf explores themes of family, relationships, feminism, and the lasting impact of World War One. This Macmillan Collector's Library edition features an insightful afterword by Sam Gilpin and is designed to appeal to booklovers with its beautifully crafted binding. The Macmillan Collector's Library presents a series of beloved classic titles, perfect for readers who appreciate the timeless allure of great literature.

Övrig information

Virginia Woolf was born in 1882, the youngest daughter of the Victorian writer Sir Leslie Stephen. She was educated at home with her sister, Vanessa, in a literary environment. The death of Woolf's mother in 1895 and her father in 1904 led to the first of the serious nervous breakdowns that would come to feature heavily in her life. Shortly afterwards she moved with her sister and two of her brothers to 46 Gordon Square, which was to be the first meeting place of the circle of writers and artists known as the Bloomsbury Group. In 1912 Virginia married Leonard Woolf, with whom she would later establish the Hogarth Press, and also published her first novel, The Voyage Out. It would be followed by eight others, including Mrs Dalloway (1925) and To the Lighthouse (1927), which together established her position as one of the most important modernists of the twentieth century. Woolf committed suicide in 1941.
