Slowly welling from the point of her gold nib, pale blue ink dissolved the full stop; for there her pen stuck; her eyes fixed, and tears slowly filled them. The entire bay quivered; the lighthouse wobbled; and she had the illusion that the mast of Mr. Connor's little yacht was bending like a wax candle in the sun. She winked quickly. Accidents were awful things. She winked again. The mast was straight; the waves were regular; the lighthouse was upright; but the blot had spread.
Autorenporträt
Virginia Woolf, born in 1882 in London, grew up in a family rich in literary and artistic influence. Her early years were marked by both privilege and personal loss, as she faced family tragedies and mental health struggles. The Bloomsbury Group, her circle of intellectual friends, profoundly shaped her life and work.As a writer, Woolf pioneered modernist techniques like stream-of-consciousness, crafting introspective novels such as Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse. She often delved into themes of identity, time, and gender, challenging societal norms. Her essay, A Room of One's Own, remains a cornerstone of feminist literature.Despite her influential career, Woolf battled depression throughout her life, ultimately taking her life in 1941. Her legacy endures through her transformative contributions to literature and feminist thought. Today, Woolf is celebrated as one of the 20th century's most impactful literary voices.
