It concerns the Ramsay family and their summer guests on the Isle of Skye before and after the First World War. As children play and adults paint, talk, muse and explore, relationships shift and mutate. A captivating fusion of elegy, autobiography, socio-political critique and visionary thrust, it is the most accomplished of all Woolf's novels. On completing it, she thought she had exorcised the ghosts of her imposing parents, but she had also brought form to a book every bit as vivid and intense as the work of Lily Briscoe, the indomitable artist at the centre of the novel.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C17963</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C17963</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Woolf, Virginia, 1882-1941]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 1977 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/17963037</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Waves]]></title><description><![CDATA[Tracing the lives of a group of friends, this novel follows their development from childhood to youth and middle age.

But it was only in 2022 that Woolf scholar Urmila Seshagiri discovered a final, revised typescript of the stories. The typescript revealed that Woolf had finished this mock-biography, making it her first fully realized literary experiment and a work that anticipates her later masterpieces. Published here for the first time in its final form, The Life of Violet blends fantasy, fairy tale, and satire as it transports readers into a magical world where the heroine triumphs over sea-monsters as well as stifling social traditions. In these irresistible and riotously plotted stories, Violet, who has powers "as marvelous as her height," gleefully flouts aristocratic proprieties, finds joy in building "a cottage of one's own," and travels to Japan to help create a radical new social order. Amid flights of fancy such as a snowfall of sugared almonds and bathtubs made of painted ostrich eggs, The Life of Violet upends the marriage plot, rejects the Victorian belief that women must choose between virtue and ambition, and celebrates women's friendships and laughter. A major literary discovery that heralds Woolf's ambitions to revolutionize fiction and sheds new light on her great themes, The Life of Violet is first and foremost a delight to read. This volume features a preface, afterword, notes, and photographs that provide rich historical, literary, and biographical context.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1739808</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1739808</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Woolf, Virginia, 1882-1941]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1739808037</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>Three Early Stories</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Life of Violet]]></title><description><![CDATA[Virginia Woolf's first fully realized work of fiction--published in its final, revised form for the first time A beguiling trio of fantastical and farcical anti-fairy tales about a giantess who builds a magical "cottage of one's own," battles a silver-scaled sea monster, and defies governesses and gravity alike In 1907, eight years before she published her first novel, a twenty-five-year-old Virginia Woolf drafted three interconnected comic stories chronicling the adventures of a giantess named Violet--a teasing tribute to Woolf's friend Mary Violet Dickinson.

It explores a rich variety of themes such as sex, feminism, family life, education, and politics in English society from 1800 to the 1930s, as they affect one large upper-class London family.The principal theme of this ambitious book is time, threading together three generations of the Pargiter family. The story begins on a day in 1880 in the household of Colonel Abel Pargiter, his dying wife, and their seven children, and it ends in the1930s with a brilliantly depicted party at which the Pargiters, young and old, pass in review. Important events--births, deaths, marriages, wars--occur in the wings; it is the commonplace moments that are captured here in a sequence of perfectly drawn scenes. As the Pargiters move from the oppressive confines of the Victorian home of the 1880s to the 1930s, they are weighed down by the pressures of war, capitalism, empire, and the rise of Fascism.]]></description><link>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1072263</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S37C1072263</guid><category><![CDATA[AB]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Woolf, Virginia, 1882-1941]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1072263037</comments><format>AB</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mrs Dalloway's Party]]></title><description><![CDATA[Mrs Dalloway's Party is a forgotten classic, and an enchanting piece of work by one of our most acclaimed twentieth century writers. A sequence of seven short stories that were written by Woolf in the same period as Mrs Dalloway - the opening story in the collection was originally intended to be the first chapter of the novel - they beautifully showcase the author's fascination with parties and with all the emotions and anxieties which surround these social occasions. In The New Dress, a nervous young woman frets that her fellow guests are laughing at her yellow silk dress while Together and Apart explores what happens to two people meeting for the first time in Clarissa Dalloway's drawing room.
