Classic & Older Gothic

To the Lighthouse

by Virginia Woolf

The Ramsays' annual Scottish summers form the fragile frame for Woolf's meditation on time, loss, and the ephemeral nature of happiness. Through stream-of-consciousness prose, she traces the dissolution of a family and the passage of years with devastating intimacy. A modernist masterpiece that captures how memory preserves what life cannot.
