Jacob's Room by Virginia Woolf
"Jacob's Room" by Virginia Woolf is a novel published in 1922. The story follows Jacob Flanders from childhood through Cambridge and into adulthood in pre-war England, but with a radical twist: Jacob himself remains elusive, known only through the impressions of others. Women in his life—including the reserved Clara Durrant and bohemian artist Florinda—provide glimpses of a man who exists more as absence than presence. This experimental modernist work haunts readers with
its void at the center, presenting a protagonist through memories and sensations rather than concrete reality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
