Katherine Hilbery, torn between past and present, is a figure
reflecting Woolf's own struggle with history. Both have illustrious
literary ancestors: in Katherine's case, her poet grandfather, and
in Woolf's, her father Leslie Stephen, writer, philosopher, and
editor. Both desire to break away from the demands of the previous
generation without disowning it altogether. Katherine must decide
whether or not she loves the iconoclastic Ralph Denham; Woolf seeks
a way of experimenting with the novel for that still allows her to
express her affection for the literature of the past.
This is the most traditional of Woolf's novels, yet even here we
can see her beginning to break free; in this, her second novel,
with its strange mixture of comedy and high seriousness, Woolf had
already found her own characteristic voice.
About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has
made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the
globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to
