Number of pages: 444

Description:
The Years follows the lives of the Pargiters, a large middle-class London family, from an uncertain spring in 1880 to a party on a summer evening in the 1930s. We see them each endure and remember heart-break, loss, radical change and stifling conformity, marriage and regret. Written in 1937, this was the most popular of Virginia Woolf's novels during her lifetime, and is a powerful indictment of 'Victorianism' and its values.

Virginia Woolf's second novel is both a love story and a social comedy, yet it also subtly undermines these traditions, questioning a woman's role and the very nature of experience. A superb book that you will remember long after you read it.

In these stories conventional notions of plot and character are abandoned for a stream of consciousness, almost dream-like form of prose. Readers will find the brevity of this volume helpful in overcoming any unfamiliarity with this style of writing.
