Всичко за тази електронна книга
This pioneering novel explores a young man’s journey from boyhood to the warfront by the author of Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse.
Jacob Flanders is a young man typical of his generation—like so many who would go on to face death in the battlefields of the Great War. In this probing, elegiac book, his life is recounted through the private memories and sentiments of those who knew him. We meet Jacob as the boy who preoccupies his mother’s thoughts; the young man at Cambridge as he was known to his schoolmates; and the bachelor about London as seen through the eyes of those he loved.
From boyhood to college, from London to the Continent, and from peacetime to war, Jacob’s is a life composed of impressions. First published in 1922, Jacob’s Room represents a stylistic departure from Virginia Woolf’s previous novels and a watershed in the development of modernist literature.За автора
Virginia Woolf (1882–1941), an English modernist, has been heralded as one of the greatest female writers of all time. In 1915, she published her first novel, The Voyage Out, which became known for its peculiar narrative perspectives and free-association prose. She followed this up with several famous novels such as Mrs. Dalloway and Jacob’s Room, as well as the feminist essay A Room of One’s Own. Woolf suffered from depression and committed suicide in 1941.
