First published in 1919, Virginia Woolf’s delicate second novel,
‘Night and Day, ‘ is both a love story and a social comedy, yet it also subtly undermines these traditions, questioning a woman’s role and the very nature of experience.
‘Night and Day’ is set in Edwarian Lodon. Katharine Hilbery is beautiful and privileged, but uncertain of her future. She must choose between becoming engaged to the oddly prosaic poet William Rodney, and her dangerous attraction to the passionate Ralph Denham. As she struggles to decide, the lives of two other women – women’s rights activist Mary Datchet and Katharine’s mother, Margaret, struggling to weave together the documents, events and memories of her own father’s life into a biography – impinge on hers with unexpected and intriguing consequences.
‘Night and Day’ examines the relationships between love, marriage, happiness, and success. Dialogue and descriptions of thought and actions are used in equal amount, unlike in Woolf’s later book, ‘To the Lighthouse.’
