Here is where prose becomes art. The loss at the heart of this novel is profoundly revealed in this text. It's a wonder that so much can be conveyed with mere words on a page. Majestic stuff.

It's Virginia Woolf - if you like her thought provoking, harsh style, you'll love this. She is a wonderful author who lets her true struggles with ordinary life come through in a truly beautiful and poetic nature. I'm bias though - I love her stuff.

Classic Virginia Woolf. Michael Cunninham's "The Hours" was a rewrite of this.
Helpful Score: 1
Heralded as Virginia Woolf's greatest novel, this is a vivid portrait of a single day in a woman's life.

I tried to get through this book, read a few chapters on a plane ride and couldn't handle the stream of consciousness style. I couldn't tell which character's head I was in! Not my style I guess.
