It can be enjoyed both for Woolf's vivid portraits of character and relationship and for its insights into the philosophy of writing and visual art. To the Lighthouse is divided into three drastically asymmetrical parts. To the Lighthouse remains noteworthy for its use of multiple perspectives to reveal complexities of perception and experience. The 'corridor' describes the decay and renovation of the house over the intervening period, punctuated by marriages and deaths among the Ramsays and their friends. The first and last parts tell of two days, ten years, and a world war apart. The book is divided into three parts, described by Woolf as 'two blocks joined by a corridor'. Virginia Woolf's classic modernist novel explores the lives and thoughts of the Ramsays and their guests at the family's summer home on the Isle of Skye.
