The Waves by Virginia WoolfRead about another entry on the list.
I don’t need to introduce Woolf’s classic experimental novel to you, but no list of books about women andthe sea would be complete without it. It’s a work of interconnecting lives and ways of seeing the world, all flowing into one another. The way it’s written reflects the sea itself, with waves of narrative rushing in on top of one another, forever in flux. It’s the essential modern example of a woman writing about the sea and about people.
