Samenvatting:

First published in 1931, "The Waves" is the seventh novel published by Virginia Woolf. Among her many literary accomplishments, Woolf is perhaps best known for the daring and inventive narration she used throughout her writing. Of all of her novels, "The Waves" implements some of the most innovative and bold narration that Woolf employed.

"The Waves" is often regarded as Virginia Woolf's masterpiece, standing with those few works of twentieth-century literature that have created unique forms of their own. In deeply poetic prose, Woolf traces the lives of six children from infancy to death who fleetingly unite around the unseen figure of a seventh child, Percival. Allusive and mysterious, "The Waves" yields new treasures upon each reading.
