Über diesen Titel

To the Lighthouse is Virginia Woolf’s arresting analysis of domestic family life, centering on the Ramseys and their visits to the Isle of Skye in Scotland in the early 1900s. Nicole Kidman (Moulin Rouge, Eyes Wide Shut), who won an Oscar for her portrayal of Woolf in the film adaptation of Michael Cunningham’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Hours, brings the impressionistic prose of this classic to vibrant life.

Split into three parts, the story observes Mrs. Ramsay, Mr. Ramsey, and their children at their vacation house on the Isle of Skye. While the novel follows seemingly trivial events between the family members, the plot takes a backseat to philosophical introspection, which gave the novel its fame as an icon of modernist literature. The Ramseys’ quest to recapture meaning creates a powerful allegory of man’s impermanent battle with the tangible world.

The story is truly captivating, even though at first I found it a bit hard to follow Woolf’s stream of consciousness. Kidman’s performance was excellent!

Great story, wonderful performance

I had to re-listen several parts of the book to really understand what was going on. The reading was rather flat, which didn’t contribute to the already over detailed story. Still is Virginia Wolf and put into context.. cannot be less than 4 stars

Difficult to follow
