About the Book

«Un texto musical --por la aliteración y el ritmo -- cargado de imágenes poéticas, un hito de la rompedora novelística inglesa de principios de siglo»El MundoDesde el momento de su publicación, Las olas ha sido considerada una de las obras capitales de la narrativa contemporánea, tanto por la original e hipnótica belleza de su prosa como por la perfección de su revolucionaria técnica. Con el paso de los años, su influencia en la literatura ha ido acrecentándose.La novela desarrolla, al compás del batir de las olas en la playa, seis monólogos interiores que, como un tapiz a cada instante tejido y destejido, formulan el relato caleidoscópico de la vida de seis personajes desde su infancia hasta la vejez.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThe Waves, first published in 1931, is Virginia Woolf's most experimental novel.It consists of soliloquies spoken by the book's six characters: Bernard, Susan, Rhoda, Neville, Jinny, and Louis.Also important is Percival, the seventh character, though readers never hear him speak in his own voice. The soliloquies that span the characters' lives are broken up by nine brief third-person interludes detailing a coastal scene at varying stages in a day from sunrise to sunset. As the six characters or voices speak Woolf explores concepts of individuality, self and community. Each character is distinct, yet together they compose (as Ida Klitgård has put it) a gestalt about a silent central consciousness.
About the Author: Virginia Stephen nació en Londres el 25 de enero de 1882 y decidió poner fin a su vida el 28 de marzo de 1941. Al morir su padre, el conocido hombre de letras Sir Leslie Stephen, Virginia y su hermana Vanessa abandonaron el elegante barrio de Kensington y se trasladaron al bohemio Bloomsbury, que dio nombre al brillante grupo literario formado alrededor de las hermanas Stephen. En 1912 Virginia se casó con Leonard Woolf y juntos dirigieron la editorial Hogarth Press.

Considerada una de las autoras imprescindibles del siglo XX, entre las obras más importantes de Woolf cabe destacar La señora Dalloway (1925), Al faro (1927), Orlando (1928), Las olas (1931), Los años (1937), Tres guineas (1938) y Entre actos (1941). Especial mención merece un breve ensayo titulado Un cuarto propio, que se ha convertido en un texto de referencia para las lectoras de todos los tiempos.
