Night and Day (Penguin Twentieth
Century Classics) by Virginia Woolf
A Charming Edition, And Well Recommended, A Book That You Must Read!
Katharine Hilbery is beautiful and privileged but uncertain of her future.
She must choose between becoming engaged to the oddly prosaic poet
William, and her dangerous attraction to the lower-class Ralph. As she
struggles to decide, the lives of two other women - womens rights activist
Mary Datchet and Katharines mother, struggling to weave together the
documents, events and memories of her fathers life into a biography -
impinge on hers with unexpected and intriguing consequences. Virginia
Woolfs light, delicate second novel is both a love story and a social
comedy, yet it also subtly undermines these traditions, questioning a
womans role and the very nature of experience.
Personal Review: Night and Day (Penguin Twentieth Century
Classics) by Virginia Woolf

I have read this book many times over the past 25 years at different stages
in my life and I have loved it every time. Virginia Woolf is my favorite
author (this and To The Lighthouse are her best works, in my opinion), and
have given the book to my daughter, Katharine, for Christmas. (Guess
who she's named after?) This book is an "easy" read, unlike many of
Virginia Woolf's other novels, and follows a conventional style. However,
there is nothing conventional about her writing; I have yet to come across
another novelist with her ability to touch on everyday life with such subtlety
and nuance. The characters in this book are very likeable - it's as if I have
known them in my own life. Love this book!
