The Voyage Out

Bag om The Voyage Out

The Voyage Out is a novel by Virginia Woolf, first published in 1915. The story follows a group of British tourists on a ship bound for South America, including the young and naive Rachel Vinrace, who is travelling with her aunt and uncle. As they journey through the exotic landscapes of Brazil, Rachel begins to discover her own identity and desires, while the other passengers grapple with their own personal struggles and relationships.The novel explores themes of love, gender roles, class, and the search for meaning in life. Woolf's writing style is experimental and stream-of-consciousness, with vivid descriptions of the natural world and the inner thoughts and emotions of the characters. The Voyage Out is considered an important early work in Woolf's career and a precursor to her later, more experimental novels.In the streets of London where beauty goes unregarded, eccentricity must pay the penalty, and it is better not to be very tall, to wear a long blue cloak, or to beat the air with your left hand.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
