Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was one of the major literary figures of the twentieth century. An admired literary critic, she authored many essays, letters, journals, and short stories in addition to her groundbreaking novels.
Though its fame as an icon of twentieth-century literature rests primarily on the brilliance of its narrative technique and the impressionistic beauty of its prose, To the Lighthouse is above all the story of a quest, and as such it possesses a brave and magical universality.
Observed across the years at their vacation house facing the gales of the North Atlantic, Mrs. Ramsay and her family seek to recapture meaning from the flux of things and the passage of time. Though it is the death of Mrs. Ramsay on which the novel turns, her presence pervades every page in a poetic evocation of loss and memory that is also a celebration of domestic life and its most intimate details. Virginia Woolf’s great book enacts a powerful allegory of the creative consciousness and its momentary triumphs over fleeting material life.
A landmark of modern fiction and Virginia Woolf's most popular novel, first published in 1927. To the Lighthouse explores the subjective reality of the everyday life of the Ramsay family of the British Hebrides islands. A 'feminine' book, filled with irony, sadness, and doubts about life.

評分前言 止庵 伯·布萊剋斯東在《弗吉尼亞·吳爾夫:一篇評論》中說:“閱讀瞭《燈塔》之後再來閱讀任何一本普通的小說,會使你覺得自己是離開瞭白天的光芒而投身到木偶和紙闆做成的世界中去。”這代錶瞭有關《到燈塔去》的一種看法;讀過此書的讀者,也許還有彆的...
評分全書分為三大段。從故事層麵來看,第一部分講述瞭拉姆齊一傢和他們的客人在度假島上的一個下午的各種事和晚餐;第二部分時間飛速流轉,故事前進瞭十年,在這十年中,拉姆齊夫人和她的一雙子女都已死去,島上的一切尤其是他們的房子遭到長期的廢棄,末尾為瞭他們的再次到來而得...
評分中國的譯書,譯序常常比譯文還叫人跌破眼鏡。反正在那些前輩的眼裏,西方作品大抵都隻能是批評的靶子,即便熬齣瞭托爾斯泰那樣的一把白鬍子,也得戴上頂“唯心主義”的高帽子乖乖改造一番。當然,如魯迅先生所說,“我們從古以來,就有埋頭苦乾的人”。從早些年的耿濟之...
