VIRGINIA WOOLF

Dark garnet red bursting with blazing hologram

Through her novels, essays, letters and diaries, Virginia Woolf innovates, flirts, provokes and enthrals, revealing the brilliance of her powerful writer's mind. “One should be a painter. As a writer, I feel the beauty, which is almost entirely colour, very subtle, very changeable, running over my pen...”

 

MRS DALLOWAYS

Vibrant emerald green enriched by blazing hologram

This timeless novel paints the vivid portrait of one day in London socialite Clarissa Dalloway’s life. Mrs Dalloway’s party preparations set the scene for themes including memory, lost love, class, life choices and mental illness.“She detached the green dress... by artificial light the green shone” “She wore earrings, and a silver-green mermaid's dress”

 

ORLANDO

Mesmerizing black filled with prismatic blazing hologram

Seductive and provocative, this ‘fantastical biography’ tells the story of the title character who begins as a boy in the Elizabethan era and ends as a modern woman in 1920s London. Dressing in each era’s flamboyant fashion, Orlando explores radical possibilities: gender fluidity, nature, magic, love, literature and the past juxtaposed against the present. “She chose a black velvet suit richly trimmed with Venetian lace”

 

THE LONDON SCENE

Rich medium grey with a distinct urban feel revived by a multi-chromatic blazing hologram

In this stunning collection of evocative essays, Virginia Woolf provides an intimate tour of her beloved London. It is here that she found great pleasure observing the city and its people; taking note of the subtle details in the amalgam of intelligence and beauty. “The grey stone, ancient as it is, changes like a live thing under the incessant ripple of changing light”

 

TO THE LIGHTHOUSE

Intense violet infused with a blazing holo

Framed by a proposed trip to visit the local lighthouse, this novel provides a lyrical depiction of a family’s coastal holiday spent with a few acquaintances. Through its elegiac tone and Woolf’s use of introspection, the novel’s intimate essence provides one of the greatest meditations on marriage, parenthood, childhood, grief, loss, time and identity. “The jacmanna was bright violet” “What did she wish to indicate by the triangular purple shape – just there?”

THE WAVES

Vivid ultra marine blue drenched in blazing hologram

This stream-of-consciousness novel follows the inner life of six friends as they stretch from the innocence of childhood into the complexity of adulthood. With a dreamy, lyrical tone these monologues span the characters’ lives and are broken up by brief interludes that detail the coastal scene from sunrise to sunset.  “If that blue could stay forever”
