The Waves
The Waves, more than any of Virginia Woolf's novels, conveys the complexities of human experience. Tracing the lives of a group of friends, The Waves follows their development from childhood to youth and middle age. While social events, individual achievements and disappointments form its narrative, the novel is most remarkable for the rich poetic language that conveys the inner life of its characters: their aspirations, their triumphs and regrets, their awareness of unity and isolation. Separately and together, they query the relationship of past to present, and the meaning of life itself. -

To the Lighthouse
One of the greatest literary achievements of the 20th century and the author's most popular novel. The serene and maternal Mrs. Ramsay, the tragic yet absurd Mr. Ramsay, together with their children and assorted guests are holidaying on the Isle of Skye. From the seemingly trivial postponement of a visit to a nearby lighthouse, Virginia Woolf constructs a remarkable and moving examination of the complex tensions and allegiances of family life, and the conflict between male and female principles. -
海浪
維吉尼亞.吳爾芙最顛峰的代表作。也是她老是被聲音「驚擾」的一次交響曲,出版後再度面臨精神崩潰的狀態。 . 她的目標是要為生命照像,從最早的感覺甦醒一直到最後;生命的夢想、野心、期盼、成就和失敗,一直到最終的幻滅。」-約翰.賽門 . 「當我們身不在那裡但依舊存在的事物」,1926年吳爾芙在日記裡,提到寫這樣一本書的想法。隨後她將這個想法最早實現於《燈塔行》,就是「當我們身不在那裡但想起一張在那裡的桌子」。 . 《海浪》,將這個想法推到了最極盡。 . 六個人物,在那裡也不在那裡,同時不在也同時存在。挑戰吳爾芙最巔峰、最終極的意識流作品。 . 《海浪》也許是吳爾芙作品中結構最形式化,敘事本身全然內心化的一部作品。《海浪》透過六個人物不斷的獨白,不斷的獨白,不斷的獨白…,呈現九個像故事又不是故事的段落。六個人物用自己描述性的「標籤」或主題曲,在全書中持續地變奏:人物在長大的過程中,漸漸發展出歧異性。隨著死亡和失落陰影的籠罩,漸漸明瞭某些野心和夢想將永遠不會實現,感受到日益年老所帶來的失意悵然。 . 而太陽自海邊的花園升起,在結尾時落下,所有事物背後都是海浪。這些固定出現、純描述的意象插曲,分隔了故事的段落,也是書中唯一的客觀性,其他盡是無休止的內心的獨白。因所有寫實主義的花招盡被丟棄,使其更像是古典戲劇而非小說。
