Jacob's Room (The Original 1922 Hogarth Press Edition)
Author: Virginia WoolfPublisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
Virginia Woolf's 'Jacob's Room' is a groundbreaking novel that challenges traditional narrative structures, offering a fragmented and impressionistic portrayal of its titular character, Jacob Flanders. Published in 1922 by the Hogarth Press, this work showcases Woolf's stream-of-consciousness style and lyrical prose, placing her as a pioneer of modernist literature. By experimenting with form and delving into the complexities of human experience, 'Jacob's Room' reflects the turbulent times of post-World War I England, shedding light on the fragility of identity and the elusive nature of time. Woolf invites readers to navigate Jacob's life through the shifting perspectives and disjointed memories that shape his existence. Virginia Woolf, a prominent figure of the Bloomsbury Group, drew inspiration from her own struggles with mental health and societal expectations, influencing her exploration of gender, class, and creativity in her works. 'Jacob's Room' serves as a testament to Woolf's innovative storytelling techniques and her commitment to capturing the intricacies of human consciousness. Recommended for readers interested in modernist literature and experimental narrative forms, 'Jacob's Room' offers a profound and introspective journey into the essence of individuality and the impermanence of life.

“The ultimate literary bucket list.” —THE WASHINGTON POST Celebrate the pleasure of reading and the thrill of discovering new titles in an extraordinary book that’s as compulsively readable, entertaining, surprising, and enlightening as the 1,000-plus titles it recommends. Covering fiction, poetry, science and science fiction, memoir, travel writing, biography, children’s books, history, and more, 1,000 Books to Read Before You Die ranges across cultures and through time to offer an eclectic collection of works that each deserve to come with the recommendation, You have to read this. But it’s not a proscriptive list of the “great works”—rather, it’s a celebration of the glorious mosaic that is our literary heritage. Flip it open to any page and be transfixed by a fresh take on a very favorite book. Or come across a title you always meant to read and never got around to. Or, like browsing in the best kind of bookshop, stumble on a completely unknown author and work, and feel that tingle of discovery. There are classics, of course, and unexpected treasures, too. Lists to help pick and choose, like Offbeat Escapes, or A Long Climb, but What a View. And its alphabetical arrangement by author assures that surprises await on almost every turn of the page, with Cormac McCarthy and The Road next to Robert McCloskey and Make Way for Ducklings, Alice Walker next to Izaac Walton. There are nuts and bolts, too—best editions to read, other books by the author, “if you like this, you’ll like that” recommendations , and an interesting endnote of adaptations where appropriate. Add it all up, and in fact there are more than six thousand titles by nearly four thousand authors mentioned—a life-changing list for a lifetime of reading. “948 pages later, you still want more!” —THE WASHINGTON POST
