Sinopse

Six voices. One life. A novel like no other.
The Waves is Virginia Woolf's most experimental and poetic novel—a bold meditation on time, identity, and the fluidity of human experience.

Told through the inner monologues of six characters—Bernard, Susan, Rhoda, Neville, Jinny, and Louis—The Waves flows like a symphony, weaving together their individual perspectives from childhood through adulthood. As they struggle with love, isolation, art, and mortality, Woolf dissolves the boundaries between self and other, character and narrator, prose and poetry.

More than a story, The Waves is an experience. A novel where sunlight, sea, and silence speak as loudly as the human voice—where time ebbs and flows like the ocean itself.

"A work of genius... Woolf's most daring and profound book." — The New York Times
"A hypnotic novel of voices and visions." — The Guardian
"Reading The Waves is like listening to an orchestra of thought." — Goodreads Reviewer

Ideal for readers of modernist literature, poetic fiction, and philosophical introspection, The Waves is a landmark of experimental writing and one of the most ambitious novels of the 20th century.

Some folks will do anything to break the wild spirit of a Carolina girl 
 
For fourteen-year-old Leah Payne, life in her beloved coastal Carolina town is as simple as it is free. Devoted to her lumberjack father and running through the wilds where the forest meets the shore, Leah’s country life is as natural to her as the loblolly pines that rise to greet the Southern sky. 
 
When an accident takes her father’s life, Leah is wrenched from her small community and cast into a family of strangers with a terrible secret. Separated from her only home, Leah is kept apart from the family and forced to act as a helpmate for the well-to-do household. When a moment of violence and  
prejudice thrusts Leah into the center of the state’s shameful darkness, she must fight for her own future against a world that doesn’t always value the wild spirit of a Carolina girl. 
 
Set in 1935 against the very real backdrop of a recently formed state eugenics board, The Last Carolina Girl is a powerful and heart-wrenching story of fierce strength, forgotten history, autonomy, and the places and people we ultimately call home.

‘Quite delightful … with an atmosphere of quiet contentment and humour that cannot fail to charm.’ Daily Telegraph 
‘A swift-moving novel, joyous, happy and incurably optimistic.’ Evening Standard 
‘There is such a gentle humour in the book.’ Daily Sketch 
‘What counts for most in the story … is his mounting pleasure in vagabondage and the English scene.’ The Times 
‘A paean to the beauties of the English countryside and the lovable oddities of the English character.’ New York Times

King Magnus is dead and his three young sons--Birger (eleven), Erik (nine), and Valdemar (eight)--await the arrival of the appointed Regent of Sweden, a powerful noble and celebrated warrior, who will teach them the arts of governing, knighthood and skills of war until the young king, Birger, comes of age. Under his tutelage, Erik, the middle child, will show himself to be the most intelligent and skilful of the three; Valdemar, the youngest, will look on in admiration, while the fledgling King, will bridle with jealousy.Kristina, all innocence, is entering a world where personal desires are sacrificed to political necessity. Marriage is about forging international alliances so Birger, King of Sweden, will marry Princess Marta of Denmark; the King of Denmark will marry Princess Ingeborg of Sweden while Dukes Valdemar and Erik will marry a Norwegian princess or a princess from one of the German principalities. Kristina cannot but wonder what her own future will hold.As the young princes mature, King Birger proves himself to be increasingly inept and manipulated by the self-seeking Regent. He accuses his innocent brothers of treachery and wages war against them as punishment, wreaking unnecessary bloodshed on the land. For Erik this is intolerable. Can Sweden be left prey to his brother's weak rule? Alliances are formed across the borders as t
