Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Highly original, unconventional, and poetic, it describes the characters, lives and relationships of six friends (3 female / 3 male) living in England by an exploratory and sensuous narrative. The book is composed of interior monologues, spoken by the six characters in rotation, and of interludes describing the ascent and descent of the sun, the rise and fall of the waves, and the passing of the seasons. These natural cycles symbolize the progress of time, which carries the individual from birth to death. This work was written at a highly political phase in Woolf's career, when she was speaking on issues of gender and class
