VIRGINIA WOOLF (1882-1941) was one of the major literary figures of the twentieth century. An admired literary critic, she authored many essays, letters, journals, and short stories in addition to her groundbreaking novels, including Mrs. Dalloway, To The Lighthouse, and Orlando.
"Radiant as [To the Lighthouse] is in its beauty, there could never be a mistake about it: here is a novel to the last degree severe and uncompromising. I think that beyond being about the very nature of reality, it is itself a vision of reality." -- Eudora Welty"A classic for a reason. My mind was warped into a new shape by her prose and it will never be the same again." -- Greta Gerwig, director of Lady Bird and Little Women"To the Lighthouse is one of the greatest elegies in the English language, a book which transcends time." -- Margaret Drabble, author of The Witch of Exmoor"I reread this book every once in a while, and every time I do I find it more capacious and startling. It's so revolutionary and so exquisitely wrought that it keeps evolving on its own somehow, as if it's alive." -- Alison Bechdel, author of Fun Home"Without question one of the two or three finest novels of the twentieth century. If you're like me you'll come back to this book often, always astounded, always moved, always refreshed." -- Rick Moody, author of The Ice Storm
