A haunted house that holds the mystery of the human heart; a challenge to read the contents of a library -- that reveals how dismally bad all too many books are. Five faces in a train compartment that among them become an unwritten novel.... a garden that holds the memory of love.This gorgeous collection reveals Woolf's style and imagination in all their delicate brilliance."Virginia Woolf stands as the chief figure of modernism in England and must be included with Joyce and Proust in the realization of experiments that have completely broken with tradition." -- The New York Times
