Více o knize

'One of the great writers of the twentieth century' Guardian It is June in 1939, and the inhabitants of a country house prepare to host the annual village pageant in its grounds. It will tell the stories of English history, as it does every year. Yet the coming of war broods over the whole community, changing the meaning of past and present, and heralding a new act. Through her characters' passionate musings and private dramas, and through the enigmatic figure of the pageant's author, Miss La Trobe, Virginia Woolf's playful final novel both celebrates and mocks Englishness, and re-creates the elusive role of the artist. Edited by Stella McNichol with an Introduction and Notes by Gillian Beer

Tahle kniha mě zatím bavila ze všech nejméně od Virginie Woolf. Začátek jsem doslova hltala ale pak to začala být nudné, zdlouhavé a nebylo to vůbec srovnané, jakoby přeskakovala z jedné věci na druhou. Ale myšlenka toho, že každý z nás hraje v životě určitou roli se mi líbila.
