A masterful novel by Virginia Woolf, where the past, present, and future merge into one significant day in June 1923. To the Lighthouse is a categorically unusual book. Two days separated by a ten-year gap. The depicted ideas, moods, and spiritual experiences. Memory, through which a greater life gradually and imperceptibly enters this delicate and elegant novel. This is the most famous work of Virginia Woolf. On its pages, the large Ramsey family, spending the summer on the Isle of Skye, dreams of going to the lighthouse visible from their shore. Daily, Mrs. Ramsey informs that their father will take them there the next day. However, the trip keeps getting postponed. By narrating this story, Woolf managed to paint a whimsical and voluminous picture of human relationships and explain how men and women think while no one is listening.
