To the Lighthouse

The serene and maternal Mrs Ramsay, the tragic yet absurd Mr Ramsay, together with their children and assorted guests, are holidaying on the Isle of Skye. From the seemingly trivial postponement of a visit to a nearby lighthouse Virginia Woolf constructs a remarkable and moving examination of the complex tensions and allegiances of family life, and the conflict between male and female principles. One of the great literary achievements of the twentieth century, To the Lighthouse is often cited as Virginia Woolf's most popular novel.

Senina si materna doamna Ramsay, tragicul, dar absurdul domn Ramsay, impreuna cu copiii si diversi invitati, sunt in vacanta pe Insula Skye. Pornind de la amanarea aparent banala a unei vizite la un far din apropiere, Virginia Woolf construieste o examinare remarcabila si emotionanta a tensiunilor si aliantelor complexe din viata de familie si a conflictului dintre principiile masculine si feminine.
