Sobre aquest llibre
In Virginia Woolf's iconic novels, 'The Waves' and 'To the Lighthouse,' she explores the complexities of human consciousness and the passage of time through innovative narrative techniques. In 'The Waves,' Woolf uses a unique stream-of-consciousness style to delve into the interconnected lives of six friends from childhood to old age, revealing the innermost thoughts and emotions of each character. 'To the Lighthouse' follows the Ramsay family over a decade, capturing the fleeting moments of life and the impact of loss and change. Both novels are celebrated for their lyrical prose and exploration of themes such as memory, identity, and the fleeting nature of existence. Woolf's groundbreaking works have had a profound influence on modernist literature and continue to be studied and celebrated for their experimental narratives and philosophical depth. Recommended for readers interested in innovative storytelling and deep psychological insight, Woolf's 'The Waves' and 'To the Lighthouse' are essential reads in the canon of English literature.
Sobre l'autor
Virginia Woolf, one of the foremost modernists of the twentieth century, was an English writer whose innovative narrative techniques have profoundly influenced the direction of contemporary literature. Born Adeline Virginia Stephen on January 25, 1882, in London, Woolf was an integral part of the intellectual and artistic Bloomsbury Group. She tackled themes such as the inner life of her characters, the concept of time, and the role of women in society. In her celebrated novel 'To the Lighthouse' (1927), Woolf masterfully employed a stream-of-consciousness narrative to explore the complexities of family and loss against the backdrop of a rapidly changing world. Another seminal work, 'The Waves' (1931), is a series of soliloquies delivered by six characters, a groundbreaking narrative that eschewed conventional plot and dialogue to capture the ebb and flow of human consciousness. Beyond her fiction, Woolf's essays and reviews further reveal her as a thinker deeply engaged with the literary and social issues of her day. Regrettably, Woolf's life was marred by mental illness, and she tragically took her own life on March 28, 1941. However, her literary legacy endures, and her writings continue to be studied and admired for their stylistic brilliance and penetrating insight into the human condition.
