First edition, second impression of Woolf’s most experimental novel. Octavo, original purple boards. In near fine condition.
Considered by many to be Woolf's most experimental novel, The Waves contains a series of soliloquies spoken by the book's six primary characters: Bernard, Susan, Rhoda, Neville, Jinny, and Louis, each fiercely individual yet together forming a central, universal consciousness. Literary scholar Frank N. Magill ranked the novel one of the 200 best books of all time in his reference book, Masterpieces of World Literature and in a 2015 poll conducted by BBC, The Waves was voted the 16th greatest British novel ever written.
