The waves. Virginia Woolf. The albatross 1933

Modern Continental Library 270 pagine Libro in lingua inglese Numero 65 della serie Serie gialla: romanzi psicologici, saggi, ecc. Dalla seconda di copertina: In Mrs. Woolf’s new novel, each character speaks in soliloquy against the background of the sea. We learn to know them at school, at the University, and growing old, and as each period corresponds to a part of the day, so each stage is succeeded by a short description of nature with whose rhythm each of these lives we get to know so intimately is bound. With neither plot, dialogue nor action, the author has succeeded in attaining heights of emotion and dephts of profundity which more than justify the challenge she has thrown.
