TO THE LIGHTHOUSE

A sensitive, evocative work of fiction, To the Lighthouse, published in 1927, remains one of Woolf’s greatest works. Written in the modernist tradition, the novel begins in the summer home of the Ramsays in the Isle of Skye, Scotland, where a set of characters grapple with personal loss and trauma. Philosophical and evocative, this novel deals with questions of memory, kinship, art and the larger social order in a post-war world. Considered one of the best English-language novels of the twentieth century, To the Lighthouse has been adapted widely across television, theatre and the opera.
