In Virginia Woolf's lyrical, inventive last novel, the action takes place on one summer's day at a country house in the heart of England on the eve of World War II.
"Love. Hate. Peace. Three emotions made the ply of human life." Between the Acts takes place on a June day in 1939 at Pointz Hall, the Oliver family's country house in the heart of England. In the garden, everyone from the village has gathered to present the annual pageant -- scenes from the history of England starting with the Middle Ages. As the story of England unfolds, the lives of the villagers also take shape.
The past blends with the present and art blends with life in a narrative full of invention, affection, and lyricism. Through her characters' passionate musings and private dramas, and through the enigmatic figure of the pageant's author, Miss La Trobe, Virginia Woolf's final novel both celebrates and mocks Englishness. Even so, the coming of war looms over the whole community, heralding a new act.

Woolf, Virginia
Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) é uma das escritoras mais importantes do século XX e um dos nomes mais relevantes do Modernismo. Para além de Mrs. Dalloway (1925), seu romance mais popular, a autora britânica também escreveu contos, textos autobiográficos, ensaios e histórias infantis. Conhecida por um estilo ímpar, Woolf encontrou uma linguagem para representar a consciência de suas personagens, perscrutando sua interioridade. A escritora participou ativamente dos debates de seu tempo, tanto literários como sociais, realizando palestras, escrevendo artigos e fazendo parte do famoso grupo de Bloomsbury. Ao lado de seu marido, Leonard Woolf também fundou a editora Hogarth Press. |
