Besprechung

To The Lighthouse is one of the greatest elegies in the English language, a book which transcends time Margaret Drabble

Langtext

Woolf's textured prose invites us into each of the characters' minds as we follow them on a winding, decade-long journey to the lighthouse.

Mr and Mrs Ramsay and their eight children have always holidayed at their summer house in Skye, surrounded by family friends. But as time passes, bringing with it war and death, the summer home stands empty until one day, many years later, the family return to make the long-postponed visit to the lighthouse.

In 1912 Virginia married Leonard Woolf, a writer and social reformer. She wrote many works of literature which are now considered masterpieces, including Mrs Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando, and The Waves.
