Jacob's Room
New to the Vintage Classics Woolf series, this is Woolf's groundbreaking experimental novel. Jacob's Room is Virginia Woolf's first truly experimental novel. It is a portrait of a young man, tracing his life from childhood, to Cambridge University, and to his early adult life in artistic London. Jacob always yearns for something greater, and embarks on a voyage to the Mediterranean before the war begins and his fate is forever altered. Impressionistic in style, the narrative is as inspired now as it was when it first appeared. 'A remarkable achievement' New Statesman

The Years (Vintage Classics Woolf Series)
Virginia Woolf was born in London in 1882, the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen, first editor of The Dictionary of National Biography. After his death in 1904 Virginia and her sister, the painter Vanessa Bell, moved to Bloomsbury and became the centre of 'The Bloomsbury Group'. This informal collective of artists and writers which included Lytton Strachey and Roger Fry, exerted a powerful influence over early twentieth-century British culture. In 1912 Virginia married Leonard Woolf, a writer and social reformer. Three years later, her first novel The Voyage Out was published, followed by Night and Day (1919) and Jacob's Room (1922). These first novels show the development of Virginia Woolf's distinctive and innovative narrative style. It was during this time that she and Leonard Woolf founded The Hogarth Press with the publication of the co-authored Two Stories in 1917, hand-printed in the dining room of their house in Surrey. Between 1925 and 1931 Virginia Woolf produced what are now regarded as her finest masterpieces, from Mrs Dalloway (1925) to the poetic and highly experimental novel The Waves (1931). She also maintained an astonishing output of literary criticism, short fiction, journalism and biography, including the playfully subversive Orlando (1928) and A Room of One's Own (1929) a passionate feminist essay. This intense creative productivity was often matched by periods of mental illness, from which she had suffered since her mother's death in 1895. On 28 March 1941, a few months before the publication of her final novel, Between the Acts, Virginia Woolf committed suicide.

Mrs. Dalloway
Clarissa Dalloway is begin vijftig, elegant en de perfecte gastvrouw, maar ze voelt zich oud en uitgerangeerd.

Het verhaal van Mrs Dalloway speelt zich af op één dag in juni 1923, de dag van het feest dat eindigt in een drama.

Wanneer mevrouw Ramsay haar gasten in haar zomerhuis op het eiland Skye vertelt dat ze de volgende dag de nabijgelegen vuurtoren kunnen bezoeken, weet ze niet dat deze reis pas tien jaar later voltooid zal worden en dat er in de tussentijd een golf van oorlog, verdriet en verlies zal zijn ontstaan.

To the Lighthouse
“I put off To the Lighthouse for a long time, in order to live in delicious anticipation of it. . . . Yet this pleasure can be drawn out for only so long; if you are a reader, the morning comes when you must greet it along with the sun. . . . There is never the sense, opening To the Lighthouse, that it could have been anything else. It opens with the weather, just like the real day. It rises to some occasion, wakes with the lark to meet the weekend―moves ‘with an indescribable air of expectation,’ because it is going to meet someone around the corner, and with the shock of encounter you sometimes feel in reading, you find that it is you.” ―Patricia Lockwood, from the Foreword “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 “I know of no more gut-wrenching, soaring prose about shared consciousness, mortality and water. Truly a book for the cradle to the grave.” —Maggie Nelson “This novel is just astonishing in its depth and reach and beauty. There is really nothing else like it, and no matter how many times I read it I find myself shocked at what Woolf was able to do.” —Meg Wolitzer “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 “My admiration for this book is complete. It is as beautiful, poignant, and ruthless as anything I have ever read.” —Siri Hustvedt “Woolf’s groundbreaking novel is still one of the best available accounts of self-mythologizing middle-class family life and its oppressive construction of male and female identity.” —Rachel Cusk “One of the greatest elegies in the English language, a book which transcends time.” —Margaret Drabble “Without question one of the two or three finest novels of the twentieth century. Woolf comments on the most pressing dramas of our human predicament: war, mortality, family, love. If you’re like me you’ll come back to this book often, always astounded, always moved, always refreshed.” —Rick Moody “She was doing with language something like what Jimi Hendrix does with a guitar.” —Michael Cunningham “Radiant . . . I think that beyond being about the very nature of reality, it is itself a vision of reality.” —Eudora Welty “Thrillingly introspective.” —The Independent “At the head of all Virginia Woolf’s work.” —The New York Times

Naar de vuurtoren
Naar de vuurtoren is de meest autobiografische en ook meest virtuoze roman van Virginia Woolf. De roman gaat over het verblijf van het gezin Ramsay en een aantal vrienden in hun vakantiehuis op het eiland Skye. Op enige afstand buiten de kust staat de vuurtoren. Een voorgenomen bezoek aan de vuurtoren vormt de kern van deze bijzondere roman. ‘Deze roman is zo rijk, zo subtiel en zo machtig tegelijk, geschreven in die lichte Woolfstijl die altijd vreselijk zwaar op je maag ligt. Grandioos boek.’ — NRC Handelsblad ‘Virginia Woolfs beschrijving van de bijna onzichtbare liefde van de Ramsays heeft eeuwigheidswaarde.’ — Trouw
