I feel so intensely the delights of shutting oneself up in a little world of one's own, with pictures and music and everything beautiful.
Virginia Woolf, The Voyage Out The Voyage Out is the first novel by Virginia Woolf, published in 1915 by Duckworth; and published in the US in 1920 by Doran. Critical reception Writing in 1926, E. M. Forster described it as ... a strange, tragic, inspired book whose scene is a South America not found on any map and reached by a boat which would not float on any sea, an America whose spiritual boundaries touch Xanadu and Atlantis And, reviewing the book a decade earlier, he wrote this: It is absolutely unafraid... Here at last is a book which attains unity as surely as Wuthering Heights, though by a different path. Literary scholar Phyllis Rose writes in her introduction to the novel, No later novel of Woolf's will capture so brilliantly the excitement of youth. And also the excitement and challenge of life. It's not cowardly to wish to live, says one old man at the end of the book. It's the very reverse of cowardly. Personally, I'd like to go on for a hundred years... Think of all the things that are bound to happen!
