Description
Jacob Flanders is a young man passing from adolescence to adulthood in a hazy rite of passage. His elusive character is gradually revealed through a stream of loosely related incidents and impressions.
Set against the backdrop of 1914, Jacob's life is marked by the turmoil of Europe on the brink of war. This novel heralded Virginia Woolf's bold departure from traditional methods, experimenting with time and reality, memory and desire.
Published by Penguin Classics, this revised edition of Jacob's Room offers a unique insight into Woolf's innovative style, with authoritative notes and introductions by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors.
