"Published in 1915, The Voyage Out, Woolf's first novel, clearly lays bare the poetic style that is the signature of her later fiction. Here she tells the story of Rachel Vinrace, a motherless young woman who embarks on a sea voyage to South America and falls in love with an aspiring writer. Theirs is a tale of doomed love, set against a chorus of other voices and other stories, as the narrative's focus shifts among its central and peripheral characters."--BOOK JACKET.

Woolf's appallingly mature debut novel, often considered one of her most biting. In a modernization of an epic adventure, Woolf's heroine, Rachel Vinrace sets sail for South America on a ship belonging to her father.|

A new way of writing a book was simply a new way of looking at life for Virginia Woolf: She held life like a crystal which she turned over in her hands and looked at from another angle. But a crystal is too static an image; for, of course, she knew that the crystal flowed. —Stephen Spender
I cannot imagine a time, however bleak, or a writer, whatever his school, when and for whom [Woolf's] devotion to her art, her industry, her severity with herself–above all, her passionate love, not only or chiefly for the big moments of life but also for its daily humdrum 'sausage-and-haddock' details–will not remain an example that is at once an inspiration and a judge. —W. H. Auden

"I read the book of Job last night - I don't think God comes out well in it."
"Each has his past shut in him like the leaves of a book known to him by heart and his friends can only read the title."
"Literature is strewn with the wreckage of those who have minded beyond reason the opinion of others."
