Synopsis

(This Study Edition contains extra wide margins on each page to enable notes to be made.)

Night and Day was Virginia Woolf’s second novel. Set in Edwardian London, it contrasts the daily lives and romantic attachments of two acquaintances, Katharine Hilbery and Mary Datchet. The novel examines the relationships between love, marriage, happiness, and success; and deals with issues concerning women’s suffrage, whether love and marriage can coexist, and whether marriage is necessary for happiness. Motifs throughout the book include the stars and sky, the River Thames; and many references are made to the works of William Shakespeare, especially As You Like It.

À propos de l'auteur

Virginia Woolf (1882 – 1941) was an English writer and one of the foremost modernists of the twentieth century. Between the two world wars, Woolf was a significant figure in London literary society and a central figure in the influential Bloomsbury Group of intellectuals. Her most famous works include the novels Mrs Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927) and Orlando (1928), and the book-length essay A Room of One’s Own (1929), with its famous dictum, “A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.” Woolf suffered from severe bouts of mental illness throughout her life and committed suicide by drowning in 1941 at the age of 59.
