Descrizione

About The Book: Jacob's Room, Virginia Woolf's third novel published on October 26, 1922, revolves ambiguously around Jacob Flanders. The narrative, primarily a character study, lacks a conventional protagonist and is constructed with a void in place of Jacob, portrayed through others' impressions. Embracing motifs of emptiness, the novel creates an elegiac atmosphere, presenting Jacob as a collection of memories and sensations rather than a concrete reality. Spanning pre-war England, Jacob's journey from childhood through Cambridge to adulthood unfolds, narrated mainly by the women in his life. A departure from Woolf's earlier works, Jacob's Room stands as a significant modernist text, showcasing her experimental narrative style.
