To the Lighthouse

"To the Lighthouse" – a categorically unusual book. Two days, separated by a ten-year gap. Illustrated ideas, moods, and spiritual experiences. Memory, with which a great life gradually and imperceptibly enters this delicate and elegant novel. Such 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 that is visible from their shore. Daily, Mrs. Ramsey announces that their father will take them there the next day. However, the trip keeps getting postponed. By describing this story, Woolf managed to draw a whimsical, voluminous depiction of human relationships and tell how and what women and men think while no one hears them.
