Virginia Woolf considered her novel _To the Lighthouse_ "easily the best of my books." A pathbreaking work of uncompromising and startling beauty, the 1927 novel is the greatest example of Woolf's unflagging search for meaning and happiness in the face of loss and death. Indelibly memorable, deeply moving, and immensely rewarding, it ranks as one of the masterpieces of world literature. _To the Lighthouse_ continues to increase its power and fascination over readers to this day. This Warbler Classics edition includes a new afterword by Ulrich Baer and a detailed biographical timeline.
