Between The Acts

Hodnocení knihy

Více o knize

Outwardly a novel about life in a country-house in whose grounds there is to be a pageant, Between the Acts is also a striking evocation of English experience in the months leading up to the Second World War. Through dialogue, humour and the passionate musings of the characters, Virginia Woolf explores how a community is formed (and scattered) over time. The pageant, a series of scenes from English history, and the private dramas that go on between the acts, are closely interlinked. Through the figure of Miss La Trobe, and author of the pageant, Virginia Woolf questions imperialist assumptions and, at the same time, re-creates the elusive role of the artist.

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.
