Bag om To the Lighthouse

'One of the greatest elegies in the English language, a book which transcends time' Margaret DrabbleTo the Lighthouse is at once a vivid impressionistic depiction of a family, the Ramseys, whose annual summer holiday in Scotland falls under the shadow of war, and a meditation on marriage, on parenthood and childhood, on grief, tyranny and bitterness. The novel's use of stream of consciousness, reminiscence and shifting perspectives gives it an intimate, poetic essence, and at the time of publication in 1927 it represented an utter rejection of all that had gone before.Edited by Stella McNichol with an Introduction and Notes by Hermione Lee

Brugerbedømmelser af To the Lighthouse

  • Maria K. 8. april 2022

    Virginia Woolf formår med ord at male et billede af en familie, et hus og et England i opløsning - du sidder med til bords med familien og deres logerende, spankulerer med rundt i haven og langs klitterne - for derefter at få et udefra perspektiv, der for mit vedkommende er den måske smukkeste portion af historien. Her er mange nuancer, i forhold til samfund, kultur og kønsroller, men også den skarpe kontrast mellem krig, fred, liv og død; samt hvordan de ikke nødvendigvis er hinandens yderpunkter. 5/5 stjerner
