À propos de ce contenu audio
‘London perpetually renews itself. Streets vanish; houses fall; and yet somehow the great city remains the same, aloof, indifferent, eternal.’
Initially published in Good Housekeeping magazine in 1931 and 1932, this stunning collection of essays elegantly capture the vibrancy and busyness of life in London.
Writing on everything from its locals, architecture and atmosphere, Woolf’s Essays on London provide an acute and perceptive insight into early twentieth century city life. Including profound meditations on the rhythm of life on Oxford Street and the consumerism that drives it, vivid descriptions of the epic cathedrals that pave the streets and the place of religion in contemporary society, and an intimate sketch of a charming woman who is a Londoner to her core, these eloquent snapshots of the city are told with Woolf’s trademark intimacy and self-awareness.
Virginia Woolf (1882 – 1941) was one of the most significant novelists of the twentieth century. A modernist writer and progressive thinker, she is known for her stream of consciousness narrative style and influence on feminist criticism. Her works have been translated into over fifty languages and are widely read and adapted to this day.
