Rereading books is always so surprising!

Thank you so much for this. I loved Orlando and have picked up To The Lighthouse as my 2nd Woolf. I haven’t gotten far yet, but indeed I’m finding it a hard read. But very rewarding! It is physically short but I imagine will take me days to finish.

I stumbled across To the Lighthouse on a whim. My library had a short audiobook version (voiced by Juliet Stevenson, who did an amazing job); at first, I was confused, but mesmerized by how I could see the structure of some of my own thoughts so clearly transmuted onto the page. I looked up a few videos to help but what kept me glued to it was the sound of the language, like you said, the beauty alone is enough for the book to last. I think maybe it’s meant to be read aloud, sort of like Shakespeare. Also I listened to that particular audiobook two more times, then found out the (2hr) audiobook was some sort of condensed version 😣 the regular version is more like 7hrs… still short but that’s nearly half as much more. so I felt like I missed a lot of good quotes. Tried reading the unabridged book and it’s great but now I’m so used to the book that I got Lighthouse Fatigue.

It's such a hard read!! Thank you for the video.

I wanted to try reading a Virginia wolf book just to widen my bookology knowledge so i bought To The Lighthouse and i admit i couldn't go through the very first pages don't know why ( lots of characters i lost my way) and am a daily reader but after watching your vid am definitely giving it a try again 👍

I read the waves and I enjoyed it. I understood it even though It was a bit confusing. I thought To The Lighthouse would be easier because its shorter but I was wrong. Thanks for this.

Just started reading the book and was struggling. The suggestions are really helpful. I had been keeping a list of the characters as it's quite confusing, seems ,I'm not the only one 😅.
