De Jacob Flanders no se sabe sino lo que se deja entrever en las impresiones que los otros personajes tienen de él y sin embargo él es el centro constante de la narración. La primera novela experimental de Virginia Woolf trabaja entonces sobre ese vacío del personaje central, una novela sin protagonista si se la aborda desde la perspectiva tradicional.La narración es un estudio de carácter, construida por el relato y los pensamientos ajenos, y sin embargo el argumento se desarrolla sin interrupciones, siguiendo a Jacob desde su infancia hasta el desenlace de la historia.Es a la vez un relato de un joven exitoso que encarna los valores de la sociedad inglesa. Un mundo que terminará, como el libro, con la Primera Guerra Mundial.Flanders recuerda así a Flandes la región Flamenca y a sus campos de batalla con la sangre derramada que terminará simbolizada por amapolas rojas. 10

  • Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown
    Virginia Woolf
    The author penned the article in 1923 and first presented it to the Heretics in 1924. The essay is an argumentative piece that tries to go beyond Arnold Bennett’s thesis that characters are what novels are all about, and his too-simple explanation for why young writers haven’t been able to make their characters seem real. Woolf picks 1910 as the year when things start to change...
