ABOUT THIS BOOK

‘For now she need not think of anybody. She could be herself, by herself.
And that was what now she often felt the need of—to think; well not even
to think, to be silent; to be alone…’
First published in 1972, To the Lighthouse is an exceptional experiment in
the literary technique of stream of consciousness. It is considered as one
of the best English-language novels of the twentieth century. This novel by
Virginia Woolf is an epitome of human desire, a force that pulsates over
the indifferent sea of the natural world leading people’s passage across it.
To the Lighthouse, like Woolf ’s other works, has earned its rightful place in
feminist literature of all times.
