Produktinformationen zu „The Voyage Out (World Digital Library) (PDF)“
The Voyage Out is an inward journey as much as it is an outward one. On a trip to South America on her father’s ship, Rachel Vinrace is tossed onto a route of self-exploration. Through the social satire, Woolf points out that it was difficult for a woman of that era to truly convey herself. She wrote of Rachel in a letter, saying, “I wanted her to be a modern individual, not a Victorian heroine!” Published in 1915, this is Woolf’s first book, and it is one that is witty and lyrical.
Autoren-Porträt von Virginia Woolf
One of the most famous women writers of all time, Virginia Woolf’s novels are plagued by her suicide. She drowned herself on March 28, 1941, after a bout of mental illness, saying, “I hear voices and cannot concentrate on my work.” Even before that fateful day she had dwelt on suicide, deciding to kill herself should the Nazis invade England. However, her obsession with death could, at least in this novel, be attributed to the fact that her brother passed away after taking a journey like the main character of A Voyage Out had taken.Part of Woolf’s personal struggle in life was, perhaps, due to her acute awareness of the social restraint placed upon women of the era. A feminist, part of what Woolf enjoyed so much about the famed Bloomsbury group she belonged to was the men in the circle, “criticized our arguments as severely as their own. They never seemed to notice how we were dressed or if we were nice looking or not."
