A Fine pristine book in Near Fine jacket on account of some toning to the spine trivial wear at the corner and some offsetting to the inner front flap. Internally fresh bright and clean. A pleasing copy in the iconic jacket designed by Vanessa Bell.<br/><br/>"'I am writing to a rhythm and not to a plot' Virginia Woolf stated of her eighth novel The Waves. Widely regarded as one of her greatest and most original works it conveys the rhythm of life in synchrony with the cycle of nature and the passage of time. Six children -- Bernard Susan Rhoda Neville Jinny and Louis -- meet in a garden close to the sea their voices sounding over the constant echo of the waves that role back and forth from the shore. The subsequent continuity of these six characters as they develop from childhood to maturity and follow different passions and ambitions is interspersed with the timeless and unifying chorus of nature.The Waves is Woolf's searching exploration of individual and collective identity" Parsons. A demanding and beautiful read The Waves was hailed as a masterpiece in its own time. "The book is as it were a piece of subtle penetrating magic. The substance of life as we are accustomed to seeing it in fiction is transposed and the form of the novel transmuted to match it.A glittering rain of impressions and reactions" Contemporary Times Literary Supplement. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. The Hogarth Press unknown books‎

About fine with the spine ends lightly bumped else very tight and fresh; in a fine unclipped dust jacket with none of the usual toning. Overall an exceptionally bright copy free of any repairs or restoration. Housed in a custom folding case. Kirkpatrick A22a Woolmer 423. Simultaneously the last novel to be published and the most widely read during the author's lifetime The Years traces the history of the members of the Pargiter family from the 1880s to the 1930s. While the plot spans 50 years the text is more a collection of vignettes each of which represents a single moment of a given year. The Years began as a lecture Woolf gave in 1931 to the National Society for Women's Service. Building upon the issues generated in her previous novel A Room of One's Own 1929 she wanted to take a broader view of women's social and economic lives. The Years began as a series of essays with each followed by a novelistic passage; in the end only the novelistic passages were included and the essays were collected as Three Guineas 1938. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine. Illus. by Bell Vanessa. London: The Hogarth Press hardcover books‎

‎To the Lighthouse.‎

‎London: Leonard & Virginia Woolf at the Hogarth Press 1927. First edition of one of Woolf's most popular and acclaimed major novels in the extremely rare original dust jacket designed by Vanessa Bell Woolf's sister. Octavo original cloth. Near fine in the rare original dust jacket with light rubbing and wear to the crown of the spine. Jacket design by Vanessa Bell. From the library of Elizabeth Paepcke with her signature in pencil to the front free endpaper. Paepcke along with her husband Walter were philanthropists best noted for founding the Aspen Institute and the Aspen Skiing Company in the early 1950s both of which helped transform the town of Aspen Colorado into an international resort destination and popularize the sport of skiing in the United States. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Rare and desirable especially in this condition and with noted provenance. Published two years after Mrs. Dalloway and three years before The Waves To the Lighthouse "displays Woolf's technique of narrating through stream of consciousness and imagery at its most assured rich and suggestive" Drabble 990. "In its portrayal of life. it gives us an interlude of vision that must stand at the head of all Virginia Woolf's work" New York Times. To the Lighthouse was "written at the height of her luminous Impressionist vision. It is the sunniest of her books and shows the obsession with rendering the passage of time which dominated her later work. With her prosperous upper middle class academic background of the late Victorian establishment Virginia Woolf is always walking a tight-rope in her desire to get away from it and portray ordinary people as a novelist should hence the mixture of respect and irony with which she surveys its security and solid values" Connolly. It was named by Modern Library as one of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. In 2005 the novel was chosen by TIME magazine as one of the one hundred best English-language novels since 1923. It was adapted to film in 1983 by Hugh Stoddart directed by Colin Gregg and produced by Alan Shallcross. Leonard & Virginia Woolf at the Hogarth Press hardcover books‎

‎Typed letter signed to Lady Sackville 20th Sept. 1927‎

‎1927. Lady Sackville Vita Sackville-West's mother was then living at the Hotel Metrople in Brighton. Woolf writes "About Vitas new book-- I will certainly do my best to make her choose the title you want . but as far as I know she has not yet begun to write it . I shall remember your wishes and drop them tactfully into her ears". Woolf then suggests that Lady Sackville write her Memoirs for the Hogarth Press "Nothing could be more interesting. We would publish it with lots of pictures". The recipient has annotated the envelope "asking me to write my life and publish it through the Hogarth Press!!! I refused of course". With a 1982 letter from Nigel Nicolson Lady Sackville's grandson presenting the letter to a house-guest he remarks "If the illiterate crazy old lady which Lady S. had become in 1927 had accepted Virginia's offer what would the Press have done with the nonsense she produced" <br/><br/> unknown books‎
