Probably not the best book to get acquainted with Virginia Woolf, but here we are.
We follow the internal monologues of 6 different characters, from childhood until the old age.
I was able to engage with the story, despite the strange and experimental style of writing. But some other times, specially towards the end, I was not engaged at all and felt like reading through the end was a chore. Too much poetic wondering.
Despite that, it was ok to follow these 6 characters, see how different they were and how they kept a nice friendship over the decades. But makes me wonder how much more interesting it would have been to read their stories in a sort of "normal" narrative.
