The second part lost me a bit, but overall this is an example of a book that only works, if you are picking it up at the right time in your life.
Take your time with it, let it sink in, read parts several times. For me it helped a lot to be listening to it on audio, it transported the atmospheric writing of Woolf really well for me.
Moderate: Emotional abuse, Misogyny, Racism, Death, Death of parent, and Grief

I have to say that this definitely going to be a difficult one to give a rating to. The prose is beautiful and warrants 5 stars, but I think this needs a reread for me to get fully invested into the story.
