The Waves (Vintage Classics Woolf Series) by Virginia Woolf is not merely a novel; it is an exquisite exploration of the human condition that every literature lover must experience. This stunning edition from Vintage Classics encapsulates Woolf's poetic brilliance, inviting readers into a world where life, love, and loss intricately intertwine.

In The Waves, Woolf introduces six dynamic characters, each navigating their childhood within a picturesque seaside garden. As they grow, the narrative artfully weaves their inner thoughts and reflections, providing profound insights into essential themes such as:

  • Identity: Discover the evolution of self amidst changing circumstances.
  • Community: Experience the deep connections that persist even through heartache.
  • Grief: Reflect on the emotional depths accompanying love and friendship.

This poignant narrative draws from Woolf's own life, particularly the heartbreaking loss of her brother, Thoby, whose memory resonates throughout the text. Regarded as Woolf's magnum opus, The Waves is celebrated for its emotional richness and literary innovation, solidifying its place as one of the foundational works of modern literature.

As part of the Vintage Classics series, this edition not only honors Woolf’s legacy but also invites both longtime admirers and new readers to immerse themselves in its complex emotional tapestry. Recognized for its timeless relevance, The Waves continues to touch the hearts of audiences around the world, making it a compelling addition to any literary collection.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
