Description
WOOLF, Virginia (1882-1941). Â The Waves. London: Hogarth Press, 1931.
8vo. Half-title. Original purple cloth, spine gilt-lettered (a few tiny spots to sheet edges); unrestored dust jacket printed in lime green and brown designed by Vanessa Bell (spine and edges darkened, a few pale spots, minor chipping, chip to front panel with tiny loss).
Â
FIRST EDITION of Woolf's most experimental work, generally considered to be her masterpiece. Â The novel traces six narrators from childhood through adulthood. Woolf considers the individual consciousness of each character and the ways in which those consciousnesses intersect; the soliloquies spoken by each character explore the concepts of individuality, self, and community. Â A seventh character is present, but readers never hear him speak in his own voice. Â Kirkpatrick A16a.
