To The Lighthouse - Virginia Woolf Meridiaan ziet ze in dat zeWoolfs textured prose invites us into each of the characters minds as we follow them on a winding, decade long journey to the lighthouse. Mr and Mrs Ramsay and their eight children have always holidayed at their summer house in Skye, surrounded by family friends. But as time passes, bringing with it war and death, the summer home stands empty until one day, many years later, the family return to make the long postponed visit to the lighthouse.
