THE WAVES, Woolf`s highly experimental, almost-prose-poem of a novel, asks the reader, What endures? The answer calls out from the novel like an echo in a seashell: nothing. Everything changes, decays, morphs. Woolf sketches six lives--three women and three men--all focused on a leader, Percival, a classical hero. Each character narrates a set of soliloquies through which Woolf explores the ways in which each human life is like a wave that impacts another, but is always truly alone. THE WAVES is a stunning, though abstract, look at humanity--the novel about which Woolf said, I am writing to a rhythm and not a plot. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
