The WavesThe Waves is often regarded as Virginia Woolf's masterpiece, standing with those few works of twentieth-century literature that have created unique forms of their own.

Allusive and mysterious, The Waves yields new treasures upon each reading. Annotated and with an introduction by Molly Hite |
