A review by kmhst25
To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf

challenging emotional reflective sad slow-paced

2.25

It’s not that I can’t appreciate Virginia Woolf’s wisdom, it’s just that I can’t connect to the way she conveys it. Characters in a Woolf story are always having transcendental experiences or reliving old memories in the middle of a scene in a way that is exceeding confusing. The wind has intentions, the homes breathe, every moment is ripe with symbolism and emotion. I always think it should speak to me, but it never quite does, or at least not more than 10 or 20% of the time.
