Life is not a series of giglamps symmetrically arranged;but a luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of cousciousness. 确实让人联想到简奥斯汀的风格,但是却又更加尖锐。里面的人物的自我意识很鲜明,随时会脱离现实处于失焦的状态,让书中不断出现的“有什么意义呢”问句的虚无感更强烈。设置Rachel的死亡太突兀却也大概是为了主题需要。故事没什么情节可言,也没有广阔的风景,更多的是人物的心绪和自我意识。标题《远航》包含着更多的象征意味。

The Modern Library is proud to include Virginia Woolf's first novel, The Voyage Out --together with a new Introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Michael Cunningham. Published to acclaim in England in 1915 and in America five years later, The Voyage Out marks Woolf's beginning as one of the twentieth century's most brilliant and prolific writers.
Less formally experimental than her later novels, The Voyage Out none-theless clearly lays bare the poetic style and innovative technique--with its multiple figures of consciousness, its detailed portraits of characters' inner lives, and its constant shifting between the quotidian and the profound--that are the signature of Woolf's fiction.
Rachel Vinrace, Woolf's first heroine, is a motherless young woman who, at twenty-four, embarks on a sea voyage with a party of other English folk to South America. Guileless, and with only a smattering of education, Rachel is taken under the wing of her aunt Helen, who desires to teach Rachel "how to live."Arriving in Santa Marina, a village on the South American coast, Rachel and Helen are introduced to a group of English expatriates. Among them is the young, sensitive Terence Hewet, an aspiring writer, with whom Rachel falls in love. But theirs is ultimately a tale of doomed love, set against a chorus of other stories and other points of view, as the narrative shifts focus between its central and peripheral characters. E. M. Forster praised The Voyage Out as "a book which attains unity as surely as Wuthering Heights , though by a different path."
This edition includes a new Introduction by Michael Cunningham, bestselling author of The Hours . Cunningham at once unfolds an engaging short essay of Woolf's early life and career, an insightful exploration of the themes to which Woolf returns again and again in her fiction, and a spirited defense of the relevance and lasting importance of her art. Katherine Anne Porter wrote of Woolf: "The world of arts was her native territory; she ranged freely under her own sky, speaking her mother tongue fearlessly."
