Momentan nu sunt oferte disponibile.
Michael Cunningham brings together his Pulitzer Prize-winning novel with the masterpiece that inspired it, Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway. In The Hours , the acclaimed author Michael Cunningham draws inventively on the life and work of Virginia Woolf and the story of her novel, Mrs. Dalloway , to tell the story of a group of contemporary characters struggling with the conflicting claims of love and inheritance, hope and despair. In this edition, Cunningham brings his own Pulitzer Prize-winning novel together with Woolf's masterpiece, which has long been hailed as a groundbreaking work of literary fiction and one of the finest novels written in English. The two novels, published side by side with a new introduction by Cunningham, display the extent of their affinity, and each illuminates new facets of the other in this joint volume. In his introduction, Cunningham re-creates the wonderment of his first encounter with Mrs. Dalloway at fifteen--as he writes, "I was lost. I was gone. I never recovered." With this edition, Cunningham allows us to disappear into the world of Woolf and into his own brilliant mind. Michael Cunningham is the author of several novels, including A Home at the End of the World, Flesh and Blood, The Hours (winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award and the Pulitzer Prize), Specimen Days , and The Snow Queen , as well as A Wild Swan and Other Tales , a collection of short fiction. He lives in New York City and teaches at Yale University. Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was a novelist, cultural critic, and publisher, and the author of such groundbreaking novels as To the Lighthouse , The Years , and The Waves . Woolf was one of the most important and innovative writers of the twentieth century, and her essays include the canonical feminist text A Room of One's Own .
