關於這本電子書
In "Flush," Virginia Woolf masterfully interweaves the life story of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's beloved spaniel, Flush, with rich explorations of social change and the constraints of Victorian society. The novel employs a lyrical prose style, reminiscent of stream-of-consciousness, as it delves into Flush's perspective, revealing the emotional landscape of canine life intertwined with human experiences. Woolf's narrative skillfully navigates themes of love, loyalty, and the societal roles imposed on individuals, both human and animal, showcasing her deep empathy and understanding of character and context. Virginia Woolf, a prominent figure of modernist literature, often drew on her own experiences and societal observations to inform her writing. Growing up in a literary household and experiencing the limitations placed on women in her time undoubtedly influenced Woolf's decision to illuminate the life of a dog against the backdrop of a repressive era. This unique perspective allows for a deeper exploration of identity and agency, challenging the norms of both human and animal life. "Flush" is a captivating read for those interested in the interplay of human and animal existence, as well as for enthusiasts of early 20th-century literature. Woolf's keen insights and innovative narrative style will appeal to scholars and casual readers alike, inviting them to reconsider the contours of loyalty and love through the eyes of an endearing canine.
關於作者
Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) was an influential English writer and a central figure in the modernist literary movement of the early 20th century. Her narrative style is noted for its lyrical prose, exploration of consciousness, and use of stream of consciousness. Born into an intellectual household, Woolf was a pioneer in the use of indirect speech and inner monologue, greatly contributing to the development of the novel as a form. Among her most celebrated works are 'Mrs. Dalloway' (1925), 'To the Lighthouse' (1927), and 'Orlando' (1928). Her lesser-known novel 'Flush' (1933), a biographical fiction, tells the story of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's cocker spaniel. Through 'Flush', Woolf examines society and class while employing a whimsical narrative voice that captures the canine perspective, blending biography with elements of comedy and social commentary. Woolf's literary presence extended beyond novels to essays, such as those collected in 'The Common Reader' (1925), and pioneering feminist texts, including 'A Room of One's Own' (1929). Her writing has been praised for its depth of psychological insight and its contribution to gender studies and literary criticism. Woolf's innovative methods and thematic focus have solidified her status as a significant and enduring figure in literature.
