Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The definitive edition of Virginia Woolf's last and most lyrical work containing the original text she was working on at the time of her death. The story takes place at Pointz Hall, the country home of the Oliver family for 120 years, and revolves around the village pageant which aspires to present the entire history of England from the Middle Ages to the summer of 1939. The comic events on stage, the reactions of the villagers in the audience, the blend of past and present all affirm Virginia Woolf's belief in art as the unifying principle of life.
