O ovoj e-knjizi

The Years is a 1937 novel by Virginia Woolf, the last she published in her lifetime. It traces the history of the genteel Pargiter family from the 1880s to the "present day" of the mid-1930s. Although spanning fifty years, the novel is not epic in scope, focusing instead on the small private details of the characters' lives. Except for the first, each section takes place on a single day of its titular year, and each year is defined by a particular moment in the cycle of seasons. (Wikipedia)

O autoru

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) stands as a towering figure in modernist literature, renowned for her innovative narrative techniques and profound explorations of the human psyche. Born Adeline Virginia Stephen in London, Woolf was deeply embedded in the intellectual circles of her time, notably the Bloomsbury Group, which included luminaries like E.M. Forster and John Maynard Keynes. This collective was known for its avant-garde approach to art, literature, and social issues, often challenging the status quo.Woolf's literary career is marked by her pioneering use of stream-of-consciousness, a technique that delves into the inner thoughts and emotions of her characters, offering readers an intimate glimpse into their minds. This method was revolutionary, influencing countless contemporary writers and reshaping the landscape of 20th-century fiction.Her personal life was as complex and compelling as her works. Woolf struggled with mental illness throughout her life, a battle that profoundly impacted her writing and ultimately led to her tragic suicide in 1941. Despite these challenges, she produced a prolific body of work that includes novels, essays, and short stories, each characterized by a deep sensitivity to the nuances of human experience.Woolf was also a fervent advocate for women's rights and gender equality, using her platform to challenge the patriarchal structures of her time. Her essays and lectures on these subjects remain influential, continuing to inspire feminist thought and activism today.Controversial yet celebrated, Woolf's legacy endures not only through her literary contributions but also through her unwavering commitment to exploring and challenging the societal norms of her era. Her work remains a touchstone for modern readers, offering timeless insights into the complexities of identity, creativity, and human connection.
