The Years is perhaps Virginia Woolf's most politically and
historically embedded novel. It covers a period of intense social
change from the 1880s to the 1930s, making direct reference to
suffrage, Irish Home Rule, the First World War, and anti-semitism.
The novel's composition history is unusually complex; the text
changed radically from its inception in 1931 to its publication in
1937. This edition provides readers with a fully collated and
annotated text. It includes a substantial introduction that charts
the composition process, a detailed chronology, and full annotation
of all historical, cultural and topographical references. All
variants from extant galley and page proofs, as well as editions of
the novel produced in Woolf's lifetime, are included, and reveal
the significant and crucial changes Woolf made even in the months
before publication.
