Eric Warner places The Waves in the context of Virginia Woolf's career and of the 'modern' age in which it was written. He examines how she came to write the novel, what her concerns were at the time, and how it is linked both in style and theme with her earlier, more accessible works. A final chapter explores the problematic relation of the book to the genre of the novel.

Not what I expected.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Virginia Woolf: The Waves (Landmarks of World Literature) (Paperback)
This is not Virginia Woolf's novel "The Waves". It is a scholarly discussion and literary criticism of "The Waves". I want to read the novel, not a work about the novel. My fault. I should have read the information more carefully.
