Meer oor hierdie e-boek
Virginia Woolf’s "Night and Day" offers a fascinating glimpse into Edwardian England, where the lives of two women—Katharine Hilbery and Mary Datchet—serve as the focal point for exploring issues of love, marriage, gender roles, and intellectual ambition. Katharine, born into a privileged family, is caught between the traditional expectations of society and her own intellectual pursuits, while Mary, an independent suffragette, embodies the changing roles of women in this period. Their paths intertwine as they navigate love, personal freedom, and the question of what it means to be fulfilled.
Woolf’s insightful social commentary and sharp observations of class and gender dynamics make this novel a valuable read for anyone interested in feminist literature and the complexities of relationships in a changing society. The narrative unfolds with a delicate balance of romance and reflection, revealing the inner turmoil and external pressures faced by women in the early 20th century.
Unlike Woolf’s later works, which delve deeper into stream-of-consciousness techniques, "Night and Day" is more traditional in its narrative style, making it accessible for readers new to her work. This rich, character-driven novel will appeal to those who enjoy introspective fiction that offers a powerful commentary on the evolving roles of women and the struggles for personal autonomy and societal recognition.
