Sobre l'autor

Virginia Woolf, born Adeline Virginia Stephen on January 25, 1882, in London, stands as one of the foremost literary figures of the 20th century. A central figure in the Bloomsbury Group, Woolf's modernist approach redefined narrative structure and the portrayal of the psychological facets of characters, as seen in her much-acclaimed works such as 'Mrs. Dalloway' (1925) and 'To the Lighthouse' (1927). Woolf was renowned for her innovative use of stream of consciousness, which she skillfully employed to delve into her characters' inner lives, a technique that became a hallmark of her style. Her essay collection 'The Moment & Other Essays' showcases her wide-ranging intellect and the breadth of her interests, from literature to politics. Woolf's influence extended beyond her novels and essays; her critical works, including 'A Room of One's Own' (1929), advocate for women's intellectual freedom, having had a lasting impact on feminist criticism. Despite battling mental health issues throughout her life, Woolf's literary legacy is profound, inspiring countless writers and thinkers. Her work not only illuminates the complexities of human consciousness but also continues to resonate with readers for its depth and its poignant exploration of the human experience. Woolf's contributions to literature were tragically cut short when she took her own life on March 28, 1941, but her innovative narratives and impassioned advocacies remain significant to this day.
