She is perfection in reading this book

[@ishanichowdhury4051]

Such a brilliant reader, finally able to grasp each word,thanks to her, she has understood the text remarkably well to have read it like this.

Great reader. Very subtle. No overacting, like some actor-readers tend to.

[@hellbenthornball1153]

Jackass.

[@user-bd1du3cy9c]

I find it difficult to read but I expect it my fault. Moreover since V.W wrote this a book as a thought going through the characters minds the sentences might be long in purpose such makes a non native speaker struggle to understand. This is my 3rd try and I still struggle

[@noeltroy2634]

The "lighthouse" is godrevy lighthouse in Cornwall. About 5 miles east of St. Ives. Virginia woolf lived in godrevy for a number of years. A small hamlet overlooking the lighthouse

[@sterlingwalter5971]

Where she was molested, that's right, by the Duckworths bros.

[@sterlingwalter5971]

Surely you're familiar with the De Sousa bio.

[@michaelball3456]

it flows, it rolls, it swirls and stumbles and thwarts all oblivioual shades with its perpetual twirling dancing short hopping rhythms and spacing. it is an eerie weird strange magical miss-perception of blurry frowning precision of the middling space of things. i will never understand Virginia Woolf and will never need to; her works are always brilliant irreverent masterpieces of tone and shape as if they were the strand of a beach made one grain at a time of the most mundane priceless artifacts of insight. you have in her works, this feeling that you have been taken by the wrist and are being led along a perilous cliff side or down a sweeping spiral stair; broiled in alarm but no fear and struggling over the sense of wonder at that hands touch that is pellmell leading you on and on and on. there is something unique in ever spoken thought that spins you about and yet leads you nowhere and yet in the next gush you realize is taken up again and again in a rush of new over-spilling insight that butt ends or over-matches the lost thread of just a moment before. you are always stooping an open palm into the wind to try and scoop up another second of revelation of a clue to the next root of a connection to a thread left dangling of before; you are always finding yourself wadding through a spun sky of reoccurring continuation that is and is not. you realize in the touches and blushes of the genius all around you and yet the singularity is constantly splintering under a fragmented heaven. there is a tripping battered stream rolling amongst the ancient roots, the tangled middle of all things, and your hair is caught up and masks your own face and a sudden lovers; who is there and then gone with a dream logic as pure as memory and unreliable as want or needs own focus of demand. you are introduced to fully made people, who we are immersed, and learning of, by their current being, in a stream of consciousness, that neither forgives, or explains, but relentlessly clings and fumes and pummels us about, even as it remains utterly ignorant of us, despite its constant edge of pleading for our kisses of blessing, and riddles us with our scorn of unrepentant aloof silence. much of Woolf's power in her works comes from picking us up by needy stream of conscious characters that become increasingly real to us in such a way that we get this nagging suspicion that 'they' are almost aware of us and need us and want us to respond to them and of course we are utterly powerless to comply. there is a helplessness and constant uneasy hint of tragedy that only we could divert, that we are powerless to do so, and which we must thus in failure, watch unfold before us; a tin pan penny tent of a sideshow where horror is bloody in the man-made twilight and is but a breach from our fingertips swipe's power to dispel and save from the descending plight. Woolf is about an almost perpendicular tension she brilliantly creates and hulls about in clip rolling thunders of concussive force that we are embraced by and tossed by and ultimately exhausted by as she super humane vortexes into a shudder of explosive perspectives of sound and fury. her genius is her almost slight brushing touch of fragile wisp-like sublime grace of melancholy and wishful need of touch in a world of chaotic smoke and mirrors of monolithic creation. her works have power thrumming empire but of empire falling in the immediate eclipse of momentary small day to day stumbling distraction. she is a writers writer. admired by those everyone heralds the greats and has been so for generations. i doubt she will ever be as popular as warranted as she is too 'too' in any and all measurements of value. one does not really read Virginia Woolf; one uneasily snuggles up and quietly slips into the lovers arms of immersion and its addictive caustic allures. 'you will be fine.' the doctor hums as he waves a tattered arm and shuffles out of the room to call his brother, the undertaker. 'you will love reading Woolf,' the unknown figure stumbles as i shuffle into the dark, haphazardly kicking Lizzy Borden's bloody alleged hatchet into a far corner, 'what harm ever came from reading a book?'

Please can someone explain to me on chapter 6 why mr ramsay was thinking about the alphabet why he want to reach R why Q didn't get the meaning

[@Admiralmeriweather]

It’s a metaphor for human intellectual achievement. Ramsey knows that his studies (Q) represent a great achievement. But he is conscious that he has not been a once-in-a-generation talent (Z) or even one of those who is a great commentator on what others have done. He has no realistic way to get to Z ie to produce a universal masterpiece of some kind but he wonders what is holding him back from going just a little farther, thinking just a little deeper (R).

I am listening to this because it is featured as one of the 3 books that are legal to read in the most recent film interpretation of Fahrenheit 451. Is it because the book is well written but meaningless or is it something else? I'd love to get some insight.

[@__-cd9ug]

I haven't seen it but from what I've read, in the film, books are replaced by "emoji adaptations"? I suppose they picked To the Lighthouse because it's a classic and they wanted to show how books were transformed? Idk

Narrator's voice too childish to finish alas. Sounds silly. Far too many audiobook readers should never narrate anything - they don't have the proper timbre or resonance to narrate anything, which is a loss to the authors.
