Résumé

The Waves, more than any of Virginia Woolf's other novels, conveys the complexities of human experience. Tracing the lives of a group of friends, The Waves follows their development from childhood to youth and middle age. While social events, individual achievements and disappointments form its narrative, the novel is most remarkable for the rich poetic language that conveys the inner life of its characters: their aspirations, their triumphs and regrets, their awareness of unity and isolation. Separately and together, they query the relationship of past to present, and the meaning of life itself. 'A book of great beauty and a prose poem of genius' Stephen Spender.

Virginia Woolf
Née en 1882 à Londres, Virginia Woolf est une femme de lettres qui révolutionne la forme du roman traditionnel, laissant libre cours aux émotions et aux flux de pensées des personnages. De nature tourmentée, Virginia Woolf se suicidera dans la rivière Ouse en 1941. Elle est l'auteure de nombreux chefs d'oeuvre, tels que Mrs Dalloway, La Promenade au phare, ou encore Les Vagues.
