To the Lighthouse is Virginia Woolf’s arresting analysis of domestic family life, centering on the Ramseys and their visits to the Isle of Skye in Scotland in the early 1900s. Nicole Kidman (Moulin Rouge, Eyes Wide Shut), who won an Oscar for her portrayal of Woolf in the film adaptation of Michael Cunningham’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Hours, brings the impressionistic prose of this classic to vibrant life.

Split into three parts, the story observes Mrs. Ramsay, Mr. Ramsey, and their children at their vacation house on the Isle of Skye. While the novel follows seemingly trivial events between the family members, the plot takes a backseat to philosophical introspection, which gave the novel its fame as an icon of modernist literature. The Ramseys’ quest to recapture meaning creates a powerful allegory of man’s impermanent battle with the tangible world.

A beautifully written book with such vivid descriptions of surroundings and characters brought to life through the superb reading using the words the author so carefully wove onto the pages.

Kidman's reading is a joy, her performance commendable. Of course Woolf's prose is a delight. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Nicole Kidman's dry, deep voice really adds to this classic novel. I found it a little hard to get used to her at the beginning, but after a couple of chapters couldn't imagine anyone else reading it. I hadn't read (listened to!) any Virginia Woolf for a long time, and it was a pleasure to rediscover 'To the Lighthouse'. The shifts in perspective are brilliant. I love the way a character's view of another character can shift so many times in a short walk to the village.

Enjoyable reading of a classic

Listening to this was almost like listening to petter and beautifully narrated by Nicole Kidman.

I read this many years ago for my degree, and it was nice to listen and not have to deconstruct et cetera. Although Nicole doesn’t have an upper-class English accent, I found her voice quite relaxing. I think she did well.
