Автор:Virginia Woolf Год: 2000 Издание:Penguin Books Ltd. Страниц: 192 ISBN: 9780141184524 Outwardly a novel about life in a country house in whose grounds there is to be a pageant, Between the Acts is also a striking evocation of English experience in the months leading up to the Second World War. Through dialogue, humour and the passionate musings of the characters, Virginia Woolf explores how a community is formed (and scattered) over time. The tableau, a series of scenes from English history, and the private dramas that go on between the acts are closely interlinked. Through the figure of Miss La Trobe, author of the pageant, Virginia Woolf guestions imperialist assumptions and, at the same time, re-creates the elusive role of the artist.
