El cuarto de Jacob
Nueva traducción al español

De Jacob Flanders no se sabe sino lo que se deja entrever en las impresiones que los otros personajes tienen de él y sin embargo él es el centro constante de la narración. La primera novela experimental de Virginia Woolf trabaja entonces sobre ese vacío del personaje central, una novela sin protagonista si se la aborda desde la perspectiva tradicional. La narración es un estudio de carácter, construida por el relato y los pensamientos ajenos, y sin embargo el argumento se desarrolla sin interrupciones, siguiendo a Jacob desde su infancia hasta el desenlace de la historia. Es a la vez un relato de un joven exitoso que encarna los valores de la sociedad inglesa. Un mundo que terminará, como el libro, con la Primera Guerra Mundial. Flanders recuerda así a Flandes —la región Flamenca— y a sus campos de batalla con la sangre derramada que terminará simbolizada por amapolas rojas.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Adeline Virginia Woolf (1882 - 1941) was an English writer who is considered one of the most important modernist twentieth century authors and a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device. She was born in an affluent household in South Kensington, London, attended the Ladies' Department of King's College and was acquainted with the early reformers of women's higher education. Having been home-schooled for the most part of her childhood, mostly in English classics and Victorian literature, Woolf began writing professionally in 1900. During the interwar period, Woolf was an important part of London's literary society as well as a central figure in the group of intellectuals known as the Bloomsbury Group. She published her first novel titled The Voyage Out in 1915, through her half-brother's publishing house, Gerald Duckworth and Company. Her best-known works include the novels Mrs Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927) and Orlando (1928). She is also known for her essay A Room of One's Own (1929), where she wrote the much-quoted dictum, "A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction." Woolf became one of the central subjects of the 1970s movement of feminist criticism and her works have since garnered much attention and widespread commentary for "inspiring feminism", an aspect of her writing that was unheralded earlier. Her works are widely read all over the world and have been translated into more than fifty languages. She suffered from severe bouts of mental illness throughout her life and took her own life by drowning in 1941 at the age of 59.
