However, it was these early stories that first earned her a reputation as a writer with \"the liveliest imagination and most delicate style of her time.\" Influenced by Joyce, Proust, and the theories of William James, Bergson, and Freud, she strove to write a new fiction that emphasized the continuous flow of consciousness, time's passage as both a series of sequential moments and a longer flow of years and centuries, and the essential indefinability of character. Readers can discover these and other aspects of her influential style in the eight stories collected here, among them a delightful, feminist put-down of the male intellect in \"A Society\" and a brilliant and sensitive portrayal of nature in \"Kew Gardens.\" Also included are \"An Unwritten Novel,\" \"The String Quartet,\" \"A Haunted House,\" \"Blue \u0026amp; Green,\" \"The Mark on the Wall,\" and the title story. In recent years, Woolf's fiction, feminism, and high-minded sensibilities have earned her an ever-growing audience of readers. This splendid collection offers those readers not only the inestimable pleasures of the stories themselves, but an excellent entrée into the larger body of Woolf's work.","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"perpetual","offer_id":44456790130785,"sku":"9780486110080","price":0.5,"currency_code":"KWD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/9869\/4241\/files\/480_2d46d034-28f9-4734-899f-47064ce32edf.jpg?v=1778565967"},{"product_id":"jacobs-room-1","title":"Jacob's Room","description":"Prized for their lyrical qualities, the novels of Virginia Woolf favor the psychological realms inhabited by her characters, where thoughts are so revealed that actions lose much of their importance. Most are also concerned with the structure of narrative, including the present novel, in which Woolf conveys the impression of time present and of time passing in individual experience as well as in the characters' awareness of historic time. Considered Woolf's first original and distinguished work, Jacob's Room (1922) concerns a sensitive young man, Jacob Flanders, who finds himself unable to reconcile his love of classical culture with the chaotic reality of World War I. His story unfolds in a series of brief impressions and conversations, stream-of-consciousness narratives, internal monologues, and letters. This inexpensive edition of Woolf's intense and affecting novel offers readers a first-rate example of subtle style and innovative techniques for which the author is admired.","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"perpetual","offer_id":44457553920097,"sku":"9780486112862","price":1.5,"currency_code":"KWD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/9869\/4241\/files\/480_dc72a817-4a8f-43ac-b46e-2e02758dc25d.jpg?v=1778566879"},{"product_id":"the-voyage-out","title":"The Voyage Out","description":"\"A strange, tragic, inspired novel . . . as poignant as anything in modern fiction.\" — E.

Revolutionary in its psychological realism, the third-person narrative switches between Clarissa Dalloway and her fictional counterpart, Septimus Smith, a shell-shocked World War I veteran. Virginia Woolf's pioneering stream-of-consciousness technique portrays the fragmented yet fluid nature of time and illustrates the commonality of perceptions shared across social barriers. A major literary figure of the twentieth century, Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) wrote such groundbreaking essays as \"A Room of One's Own\" in addition to numerous letters, journals, and short stories. Her other novels include To the Lighthouse and Orlando.","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"perpetual","offer_id":44460590399585,"sku":"9780486849140","price":2.75,"currency_code":"KWD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/9869\/4241\/files\/480_9ee8b453-b275-4e81-8268-38fba5d7690a.jpg?v=1778570594"},{"product_id":"to-the-lighthouse-2","title":"To the Lighthouse","description":"One of the most innovative authors and distinguished literary critics of the twentieth century, Virginia Woolf examines family dynamics and the tensions between men and women in her 1927 novel To the Lighthouse.
