Jacob's Room Virginia Woolf, 1922 WOOLF, Virginia (1882-1941). Jacob’s Room. Richmond: the Hogarth Press, 1922. First edition of Woolf’s important third published novel, an awakening of a new literary mode. Following the publication of her first two novels, The Voyage Out and Night and Day, Woolf cultivated a distinct break from the conventions of the realist novel, writing of her new project that would become Jacob’s Room: “I figure that the approach will be entirely different this time; no scaffolding; scarcely a brick to be seen; all crepuscular, but the heart, passion, humour, everything, as bright as fire in the mist.” The story of the novel’s central character, Jacob Flanders, is told primarily through the narrative of the women who interact with him at various stages of his life. Kirkpatrick A6a. Octavo. Original cloth (spine and portions of panels a little toned); pictorial dust jacket designed by Vanessa Bell (mild soiling, light edge-wear); custom box. Please note this lot is the property of a private individual.
