Publisher's Synopsis

Jacob's Room is a novel written by Virginia Woolf, first published in 1922. The story follows the life of Jacob Flanders, a young man living in England in the early 20th century. The novel is divided into several sections, each exploring different aspects of Jacob's life and the people he encounters.The book is known for its experimental style, with Woolf using stream-of-consciousness narration and fragmented storytelling to create a sense of the fluidity and complexity of human experience. Through Jacob's experiences, Woolf explores themes of identity, sexuality, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world.The novel is also notable for its portrayal of women, with Woolf challenging traditional gender roles and presenting complex, nuanced female characters. Jacob's Room is considered a landmark of modernist literature and a key work in Woolf's oeuvre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
