Thread: Woolf - COA?

  1. #1

    Exclamation Woolf - COA?

    It's about time I read something written by Woolf. I've been purchasing book after book, but haven't started reading them yet. So far I only have the usual suspects: Mrs Dalloway, Orlando and To the Lighthouse. Can't decide the reading order, though. Any reccommended course of action? Any other novel of hers you think I should also get? And which novel do you like best?

    "The Waves" and "Between the Acts" are also good novels of her. I recommend you to begin with "Mrs. Dalloway" or with "To the Lighthouse". Enjoy reading her

    I have read "Mrs Dalloway" and it was really good. Currently i am reading "To the lighthouse"..so as Virgil has already said you can read this one and join in the discussion

    Thank you all for the feedback! And thanks, Virgil, for letting me know! If I manage to read it in time I will surely discuss it there! If I find those other novels I will buy them. Here, in Portugal, I've only seen (in the original language, of course) the ones I've just bought; hopefully, August's voyage to NYC will help me with that
