The Virginia Woolf Collection: Mrs Dalloway (1925), To the Lighth...
Quote:
Virginia has written a lot of stuff and these are just four of those books. I am surprised as to why Audible even earmarks it as a "Collection" when it's barely four books!
I have no idea about these books.
I used to call my ex Virginia Woolf when we first started dating. That's how low my standards were.
No way she was even close to a writer. She rarely wrote anything even when I asked her a lot to. She didn't deserve that title. Anwyays, I have never read Virginia Woolf at all and depending on the comments here, I might decide to pick it up someday.
Wait, it says Children's Audiobooks? I thought she was sort of an author that writes Pride and Prejudice.
P.S: Please give me compliments, I am starving for compliments.

Four books...one groundbreaking author.
Mrs Dalloway (1925)
One day; two lives. Mrs Dalloway prepares for a party, whilst a First World War veteran treads the same streets. Follow 24 hours in the lives of two extraordinary people, each of them recovering from the First World War. A hostess and a soldier come together...in the most unexpected of ways. Kristin Scott Thomas performs.
To the Lighthouse (1927)
A family’s summer holidays see them return to the Isle of Skye over days and years, sailing boats and enduring wars. As we follow the slow unfolding of the Ramsays' fortunes, both children and adults grow, love, lose. Listed as one of the best novels of the 20th century. Jessie Buckley performs.
A Room of One’s Own (1929)
Based on a series of lectures to women’s colleges, this collection of essays first published in 1929 explores a female’s need to have space to create, exist...survive. A must-listen for anyone exploring the roots of feminism - or simply what it is to be a woman. A provocative and pervasive listen that remains relevant to listeners of any age. Tilda Swinton performs.
The Waves (1931)
A dreamscape novel that follows six characters united by a single friend. Set against a stunning English coastal landscape, the novel dares to be one of Woolf’s most inventive narratives as it explores the journey from childhood to adulthood and beyond that - death, and all that we may learn. Vanessa Kirby, Adetomiwa Edun, Andrea Riseborough, Tracy Ifeachor, Samuel Barnett, Johnny Flynn and Juliet Stevenson perform.
