Synopsis: Virgnia’s Woolf’s crowning achievement, and one of the greatest novels of the 20th century.
 
To the Lighthouse tells the story of the Ramsey family, gathered at a cottage with several guests. While the story lacks a conventional narrative, many of the events centre around the desire of James, one of the Ramseys’ children, to visit a lighthouse. It is one of the classics of the modernist movement, and the stream of consciousness narrative style in particular. The second section, Time Passes, is famous for its depiction of loss and death over the course of years.
