'Of such moments, she thought, the thing is made that remains for ever after. This would remain.'
So reflects the beautiful, middle-aged Mrs Ramsay, a mother of eight, as she surveys her family and guests at her dinner table, and sees their fleeting harmony, a fleeting reflection of eternity. This novel is an extraordinarily poignant evocation of a lost happiness that lives on in the memory. For years now the Ramsays have spent every summer in their holiday home in Scotland, and they expect these summers will go on for ever. For the children, it is an earthly Paradise. In this, her most autobiographical novel, Virginia Woolf captures the intensity of childhood longing and delight, and the shifting complexity of adult relationships. From an acute awareness of transience, she creates and enduring work of art.

就着中文版听英文版，比黛洛维夫人喜欢多一点。画布上挥就的最后一笔，于我心如瘙痒。

"And all the lives we ever lived and all the lives to be, are full of trees and changing leaves." 读懂伍尔夫的时候发现句句珠心，太喜欢。

文字細緻得像水一樣流動，就算那麼愛Woolf，讀完也有種暈船的感覺。中間Ramsay夫婦的腦電波碰撞太精彩，而我大概要用一生時間去琢磨the lighthouse的含義
