Items related to To The Lighthouse (Roads Classics)
To the Lighthouse observes the well-to-do Ramsey family as they holiday, over the years, in their summer home on the Isle of Skye. Sparked by the postponement of a jaunt to a nearby lighthouse, the novel develops into an intricate study of childhood emotions and adult relationships, of conict between the sexes and the complex nature of families. Within its delicately crafted pages are ruminations of loss, subjectivity, art, and the problem of perception. Intimate yet universal, it is a moving modernist masterpiece. ABOUT THE COVER The suitably modern cover was hand composed of real coloured paper before being photographed, adding a sense of depth and motion.

Review:
Every detail of the design and production was considered to make these books beautiful objects, but they are not merely decorative objects... They offer a beautiful way to discover - or indeed rediscover - literary masterpieces. --The Bookseller
Roads bucks the trend of cliched and dated book covers and seeks to reach the contemporary reader on a deeper level. --Totally Dublin
Dare the term 'gifting' be whispered - one (or the set) of these could be just the ticket for the stylish book lover. --The Gloss
