O knihe

A Collection of Masterpieces Dive into the profound and innovative world of Virginia Woolf with this curated collection, featuring four of her most celebrated novels: Jacob's Room, Mrs Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, and Orlando. In Jacob's Room, Woolf explores the complexities of identity and the passage of time through the life of Jacob Flanders, a young man whose existence is shaped by the people around him and the societal expectations of early 20th-century England. Mrs Dalloway offers a poignant glimpse into a single day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway as she prepares for a party, weaving together themes of mental health, post-war disillusionment, and the intricate connections between past and present. To the Lighthouse is a lyrical exploration of family dynamics and the nature of art, set against the backdrop of the Ramsay family's summer home on the Isle of Skye. Woolf's stream-of-consciousness style invites readers to experience the characters' inner thoughts and emotions in a deeply intimate way. Orlando presents a playful and imaginative narrative that transcends time and gender, following the life of its titular character as they navigate the complexities of identity and societal roles from the Elizabethan era to the modern age. Together, these works showcase Woolf's groundbreaking narrative techniques and her profound insights into the human experience, making this collection a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of modern literature. Also included are: "Mrs Dalloway in Bond Street," "The New Dress," "The Introduction," "The Mysterious Case of Miss V." and "The Evening Party."
