To the Lighthouse
|
|
(1927) Novel by Virginia *Woolf, in which she uses the interior monologue of her characters to weave a rich fabric of rivalries and disappointments within the Ramsay family. On holiday on the west coast of Scotland, they are unable to agree on whether to make an expedition to a nearby lighthouse. The father and son, whose views were most directly opposed, reach the lighthouse together years later, after the death of Mrs Ramsay, the novel's central character.
