how do you appreciate the waves. all the characters talk in the same voice. theres no plot. no character development. are you all just a bunch of schizophrenics having independent hallucinations and pretending you are sharing it. cause this one is simply put, incoherent ravings of a madwoman.

I find it hard to believe that we read the same book. But I suppose some people are just so broken and ignorant that even this masterpiece will elude them.

It's terrible, like everything Woolf wrote. She's overrated because Englishmen don't like admitting that an Irishman reinvented the English-language novel, and because women have a bottomless appetite for self-assertion and self-pity. There are so few sorta-feminist writers who are even half-decent that they have to overpraise whoever they can get. The only alternative to Woolf would be Dorothy Richardson, a hilariously, hypnotically dreadful writer who just recounted her experiences for the thousands of pages to no end. Woolf's journals reveal an overprivileged ninny who would have done better to kill herself long before she inflicted her dreadful writing on the world, and she was only able to do that because her husband was rich enough to set up a publishing company for her.

By the way this is absolutely normal, you might be in that 2% of the population that can't properly visualize. Look for aphantasia, you've got it.

She's held in high regard for a reason, and this is coming from an Irishman who loves Joyce. You'll be hard pressed to find better writing than Woolf's. and even a finer sentence than:
>There was a star riding through clouds one night, and I said to the star, 'Consume me'.
