Omschrijving
Regarded by many as Woolf's greatest achievement, The Waves follows a set of six friends from childhood to middle age. As the contours of their lives are revealed, a unique novel is unveiled. In this new edition David Bradshaw considers its spellbinding oddness and originality, helping the reader through this most poetic and haunting of novels.
Oxford World Classics has produced a terrific reissue of Virginia Woolf's novel The Waves. There are helpful endnotes, biographical information, a selected bibliography and an introduction... a beautiful, rich novel that cannot be completely grasped in one reading. It begs to be read again and again. When I finished it I was surprised by how emotionally charged and churned up I was. I felt abandoned on the shore as the tide went out, left to wait for its return, for a wave to grab me and pull me back out to sea.
Bradshaw's introduction helps the reader to see just how readable it actually is.
David Bradshaw has written widely on twentieth-century literature and is the editor of A Concise Companion to Modernism (Blackwell, 2006) and A Companion to Modernist Literature and Culture. For Oxford World's Classics he has edited Woolf's To the Lighthouse, Mrs Dalloway, The Mark on the Wall and Other Stories, and Selected Essays.
