Love Letters: Vita and Virginia - Virginia Woolfová, Vita Sackville-West
Delve into a legendary literary love affair''I am reduced to a thing that wants Virginia. I composed a beautiful letter to you in the sleepless nightmare hours of the night, and it has all gone. I just miss you...''At a dinner party in 1922, Virginia Woolf met the renowned author, aristocrat - and sapphist - Vita Sackville-West. Virginia wrote in her diary that she didn''t think much of Vita''s conversation, but she did think very highly of her legs. It was to be the start of almost twenty years of flirtation, friendship, and literary collaboration. Their correspondence ended only with Virginia''s death in 1941.Intimate and playful, these selected letters and diary entries allow us to hear these women''s constantly changing feelings for each other in their own words. Eavesdrop on the affair that inspired Virginia to write her most fantastical novel, Orlando, and discover a relationship that - even a hundred years later - feels radical and relatable.WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION FROM ALISON BECHDEL, AUTHOR OF FUN HOME AND CREATOR OF THE BECHDEL TEST.

New Dress and Other Stories - Virginia Woolfová
As Mabel Waring takes off her cloak and steps into the drawing room of Clarissa Dalloway, she immediately realizes that something is not right: her pale-yellow silk dress, which she has had specially made for the occasion, is clearly old-fashioned, dowdy and out of place. Everyone seems to be looking at her in dismay or mocking her appearance. Crushed at once by her insecurity, Mabel is pervaded by a sense of selfloathing, and feels utter revulsion for the social world she has tried so hard to impress.Written in 1924 and perhaps intended for inclusion in Mrs Dalloway, a book Woolf was working on at the time, The New Dress is here accompanied by most of the short stories she published in her lifetime, as well as six posthumously published pieces that share the milieu and some of the characters of her celebrated novel. Together, they reveal their author as one of the finest practitioners in the field of short fiction.

Plavba - Virginia Woolfová
První román proslulé anglické spisovatelky vyšel v roce 1915 a Woolfová na něm pracovala v době, která pro ni byla neobvykle těžká, a kdy trpěla opakujícími se depresemi. Dílo si drží tradiční románovou podobu, ale již v sobě skrývá zárodky toho, co zdobí autorčinu vrcholnou tvorbu: inovativní vypravěčský styl, vhled do ženské psychiky, téma sexuality a smrti.V roce 1920 si Virginia Woolfová do deníku napsala: „Každý den od dvanácti do jedné si čtu Plavbu... je to taková směsice obrazů – místy jasně srozumitelných a vážných – místy hravých a povrchních – místy pravdivých jako slovo Boží – místy silných a plynoucích lehce a dokonale... Nad nedostatky se rdím studem, a pak věta, jasnozřivě vyjádřená představa mi tváře rozpálí úplně jiným pocitem. Vlastně musím tu mladou ženu obdivovat: jak odvážně se vrhá přes překážky – a psát tedy opravdu umí, to se jí musí nechat!“

Orlando - Virginia Woolfová
Román Orlando (Orlando, č. 1994) z roku 1928 hrál pro autorku zcela zásadní roli, patrně je to i nejdelší milostný dopis, který kdy v literatuře vznikl, a Woolfová jej píše sobě samé. Orlando je téměř nesmrtelná bytost, na své cestě prochází dějinami od počátku sedmnáctého století, doby Alžběty I., až do století dvacátého, což dává autorce prostor vyjádřit se k postupným proměnám společenských mravů. Orlando se proměňuje z muže v ženu, aby jí už navždy zůstal. Autorka se v této impresionisticky laděné próze snaží o zachycení prchavého okamžiku a zároveň o propojení minulosti a přítomnosti a významně analyzuje otázky genderu, identity a tvořivosti. Snímek Orlando z roku 1992 je pokusem Sally Potterové přetlumočit do filmové řeči tento fantastický, fiktivní román a díky skvělým hereckým výkonům a esteticky neobyčejně vytříbené inscenaci je považován za vynikající literární adaptaci, jakkoliv nebylo snadné přenést na odlišné médium všechny vzájemně se překrývající časové roviny románové předlohy.Orlando je téměř nesmrtelná bytost, na své cestě prochází dějinami od počátku sedmnáctého století, doby Alžběty I., až do století dvacátého, což dává autorce prostor vyjádřit se k postupným proměnám společenských mravů.

Orlando - Virginia Woolfová
''A fantasy, impossible but delicious ... an exuberance of life and wit'' The Times Literary SupplementFirst masculine, then feminine, Orlando begins life as a young sixteenth-century nobleman, then gallops through the centuries to end up as a woman writer in Virginia Woolf''s own time. Written for the charismatic, bisexual writer Vita Sackville-West, this playful mock biography of a chameleon-like historical figure is both a wry commentary on gender and, in Woolf''s own words, a ''writer''s holiday'' which delights in its ambiguity and capriciousness.Edited by Brenda Lyons with an Introduction and Notes by Sandra M.

''Clear, bright, burnished ... the moods that it expresses are a true kind of poetry'' The New York TimesTracing the lives of a group of friends, The Waves follows their development from childhood to middle age. While social events, individual achievements and disappointments form its narrative, the novel is most remarkable for the rich poetic language that expresses the inner life of its characters: their aspirations, their triumphs and regrets, their awareness of unity and isolation, and their questioning of the meaning of life itself. Perhaps more than any of Woolf''s novels, The Waves conveys the endless complexities of human experience.Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Kate Flint

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. ‘Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind…’ Based on a lecture given at Cambridge and first published in 1929, ‘A Room of One’s Own’ interweaves Woolf’s personal experience as a female writer with themes ranging from Austen and Brontë to Shakespeare’s gifted (and imaginary) sister. ‘Three Guineas’, Woolf’s most impassioned polemic, came almost a decade later and broke new ground by challenging the very notions of war and masculinity. This volume combines two inspirational, witty and urbane essays from one of literature’s pre-eminent voices; collectively they constitute a brilliant and lucid attack on sexual inequality.

Román v překladu Zuzany Mayerové vychází česky vůbec poprvé.…Myslím, že to bude něco úžasného. Musím být otevřená, odvážná.

Mě ale baví zdolávat tyhle překážky, a v přirozenosti je svěží vítr a síla. Mým cílem je obsáhnout nekonečnou šíři, nekonečnou intenzitu. Měla by tam být satira, komedie, poezie, próza – jak to všechno skloubit dohromady? Co třeba drama, dopisy, básně? … A nakonec všechno pokračuje dál běžným každodenním životem. Chci tam dostat milióny myšlenek, ale nesmí to být kázání – úvahy o historii, politice, feminismu, umění, literatuře – zkrátka shrnutí všeho, co znám, cítím, čemu se směji, čím pohrdám, co miluji, obdivuji i nenávidím…V.

Paní Dallowayová - Virginia Woolfová - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Slavný román v podobě audioknihy vychází u příležitosti 140. výročí narození Virginie Woolfové Nejznámější dílo britské autorky Virginie Woolfové vznikalo v letech 1922 až 1924. Původně se mělo jmenovat Hodiny, protože údery zvonu Big Benu prostupují celou knihou jako uvědomění si neodvolatelně uplývajícího času, pomíjivost dění. Dalším významným vnějším detailem příběhu jsou květiny, kterými autorka dokresluje povahové rysy postav. Vyprávění o jednom dni hlavní hrdinky, chystající se uspořádat večírek, paralelně doprovázejí popisy pocitů jejích přátel a známých, zároveň s pozorováním pohybu všech zúčastněných po Londýně, záznam detailů světla, změn přírody, zvuků města. Autorka o své knize prozradila, že jde současně o svět viděný očima duševně zdravých a šílených. Třebaže jedna z postav během vyprávění ukončí sebevraždou svůj život, výsledným dojmem z díla je pocit radosti ze života, a jak píše v doslovu Martin Hilský: nejhlouběji se vryje do paměti atmosféra toho nádherného červnového rána, kterým prochází drobná, prošedivělá žena s kyticí hrachorů v ruce. "Jsem paní Dallowayová," jako by říkala, "chyť si mě, můžeš-li."

To the Lighthouse - Virginia Woolfová
When Mrs Ramsay tells her guests at her summer house on the Isle of Skye that they will be able to visit the nearby lighthouse the following day, little does she know that this trip will only be completed ten years later by her husband, and that a gulf of war, grief and loss will have opened in the meantime. As each character tries to readjust their memories and emotions with the shifts of time and reality, this long-delayed excursion will also prove to be a journey of self-discovery and fulfilment for them. Rich in symbolism, daring in style, elegiac in tone and encapsulating Virginia Woolf's ideas on life, art and human relationships, To the Lighthouse is a landmark of twentieth-century literature and one of the high points of early Modernism.

Mrs Dalloway (Defekt) - Virginia Woolfová
As Mrs Dalloway works on the preparations for a dinner party, her thoughts throughout the day wander from memories of the past to interrogations about the present and lead her to assess the choices she has made in life and love. Her monologue interweaves with the account of the distress, on that same day, of the shell-shocked veteran Septimus Warren Smith, whose trauma and hallucinations end in tragedy, as the links between the two characters unfold.One of Virginia Woolf's most famous novels, Mrs Dalloway is a triumph of experimentation, a cornerstone of Modernism and a subtle examination of love, freedom, mental illness and the female condition in society.

Orlando: A Biography - Virginia Woolfová
With an Introduction and Notes by Merry M. Pawlowski, Professor and Chair, Department of English, California State University, Bakersfield. Virginia Woolf's Orlando 'The longest and most charming love letter in literature', playfully constructs the figure of Orlando as the fictional embodiment of Woolf's close friend and lover, Vita Sackville-West. Spanning three centuries, the novel opens as Orlando, a young nobleman in Elizabeth's England, awaits a visit from the Queen and traces his experience with first love as England under James I lies locked in the embrace of the Great Frost. At the midpoint of the novel, Orlando, now an ambassador in Costantinople, awakes to find that he is a woman, and the novel indulges in farce and irony to consider the roles of women in the 18th and 19th centuries. As the novel ends in 1928, a year consonant with full suffrage for women. Orlando, now a wife and mother, stands poised at the brink of a future that holds new hope and promise for women.

To the Lighthouse - Virginia Woolfová
Every summer, the Ramsays visit their summer home on the beautiful Isle of Skye, surrounded by the excitement and chatter of family and friends, mirroring Virginia Woolf’s own joyful holidays of her youth. But as time passes, and in its wake the First World War, the transience of life becomes ever more apparent through the vignette of the thoughts and observations of the novel’s disparate cast. A landmark of high modernism and the most autobiographical of Virginia Woolf’s novels, To the Lighthouse explores themes of loss, class structure and the question of perception, in a hauntingly beautiful memorial to the lost but not forgotten. Chosen by TIME magazine as one of the 100 best English-language novels from 1923 to the present.

Moments Of Being (Defekt) - Virginia Woolfová
Virginia Woolf's only autobiographical writing is to be found in this collection of five unpublished pieces. Despite Quentin Bell's comprehensive biography and numerous recent studies of her, the author's own account of her early life holds new fascination - for its unexpected detail, the strength of its emotion, and its clear-sighted judgement of Victorian values. In 'Reminiscences' Virginia Woolf focuses on the death of her mother, 'the greatest disaster that could happen', and its effect on her father, the demanding patriarch who took a high toll of the women in his household. She surveys some of the same ground in 'A Sketch of the Past', the most important memoir in this collection, which she wrote with greater detachment and supreme command of her art shortly before her death. Readers will be struck by the extent to which she drew on these early experiences for her novels, as she tells how she exorcised the obsessive presence of her mother by writing To the Lighthouse. The last three papers were composed to be read to the Memoir Club, a postwar regrouping of Bloomsbury, which exacted absolute candour of its members. Virginia Woolf's contributions were not only bold but also original and amusing. She describes George Duckworth's passionate efforts to launch the Stephen girls; gives her own version of 'Old Bloomsbury'; and, with wit and some malice, reflects on her connections with titled society.

Mrs Dalloway (Collins Classics) - Virginia Woolfová
HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.Clarissa Dalloway is a woman of high-society - vivacious, hospitable and sociable on the surface, yet underneath troubled and dissatisfied with her life in post-war Britain. This disillusionment is an emotion that bubbles under the surface of all of Woolf's characters in Mrs Dalloway.Centred around one day in June where Clarissa is preparing for and holding a party, her interior monologue mingles with those of the other central characters in a stream of consciousness, entwining, yet never actually overriding the pervading sense of isolation that haunts each person.One of Virginia Woolf's most accomplished novels, Mrs Dalloway is widely regarded as one of the most revolutionary works of the 20th century in its style and the themes that it tackles. The sense that Clarissa has married the wrong person, her past love for another female friend and the death of an intended party guest all serve to amplify this stultifying existence.

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics. ‘A good essay must have this permanent quality about it; it must draw its curtain round us, but it must be a curtain that shuts us in not out' In the first volume of her critical essays, Virginia Woolf discusses the greatest authors of the literary canon - Jane Austen, George Eliot and Geoffrey Chaucer among others - with the everyday, ‘common reader' in mind.

A Room of One's Own - Virginia Woolfová
''But, you may say, we asked you to speak about women and fiction - what has that got to do with a room of one''s own?''A Room of One''s Own grew out of a lecture that Virginia Woolf had been invited to give at Girton College, Cambridge in 1928 and became a landmark work of feminist thought. Covering everything from why a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write, to authors such as Jane Austen, Aphra Behn and the Brontë sisters, and the tragic story of Shakespeare''s fictional sister Judith, it remains a passionate assertion for female creativity and independence in a world dominated by men. ''Fierce, energetic, humorous'' Hermione Lee
