A neat softback copy of Virginia Woolf's defining work: To the Lighthouse.
It is regarded as one of the most important works of 20th c fiction. She was a core member of the (in-)famous Bloomsbury Group. They rejected Victorian attitudes and believed in art, friendship and social progress.
Every sentence of the novel is loaded with meaning, ranging from the metaphorical to the wistful.
Included is a rare hardcover copy printed at the end of the Second World War, when paper was scarce, and thus it uses special wartime paper which has a great feel to it. The book is by David Daiches, famous literary historian, who discusses her life and her work in detail, but more importantly he illuminates how she approached writing her novels and what she tried to convey through them.
Essential for any lovers of classical must-have fiction.
