Adeline Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was an English author and essayist and considered one of the most important modernist literary figures of the 20th century. She was a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device, which she wielded masterfully in 'perhaps her masterpiece' Mrs. Dalloway, where, during a single day in June 1923, Clarissa Dalloway prepares for a party she will host that evening, while nearby, Septimus Smith, a shell-shocked war veteran, abruptly loses touch with this reality. Employing a nonlinear narrative to weave a vivid portrait, Woolf travels in and out of characters’ minds and forward and back in time to intertwine the social structure of Clarissa’s post-First World War London with the lives of all in her orbit.

  • 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...

  • The Voyage Out
    Virginia Woolf
    Woolf began work on The Voyage Out by 1910 (perhaps as early as 1907) and had finished an early draft by 1912.
