Chargement... La scène londoniennepar Virginia Woolf
   Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.   ) krtierney | Mar 14, 2023 |   ) dele2451 | Mar 2, 2022 | ) themulhern | Dec 20, 2020 | First printed as a series for Good Housekeeping magazine in 1931 and 1932 ( ) evil_cyclist | Mar 16, 2020 | Woolf's lyrical prose is so enticing that the reader is happy to read the same page over and over before reluctantly moving on. About Westminster Abbey she writes "The company seems to be in full conclave. Gladstone starts forward and then Disraeli. From every corner, from every wall, somebody leans or listens or bends forward as if about to speak. The recumbent even seem to lie attentive, as if to rise next minute. Their hands nervously grasp their sceptres, their lips are compressed for a fleeting silence, their eyes lightly closed as if for a moment's thought." "Voice and organ vibrate wirily among the chasings and intricacies of the roof. The fine fans of stone that spread themselves to make a ceiling seem like bare boughs withered of all their leaves and about to toss in the wintry gale. But their austerity is beautifully softened. Lights and shadows are changing and conflicting every moment. Blue, gold and violet pass, dappling, quickening, fading. The grey stone, ancient as it is, changes like a live thing under the incessant ripple of changing light" ( )2  VivienneR | Nov 4, 2015 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique
