Magical, soul-stirring words brought even more vibrantly to life by wonderful performances ( ) Virginia Woolf stripped of all the beautiful language. I appreciate what was done in the collection, but it is the barest skeleton of the original. Granted, The Voyage Out, Night and Day, Orlando, and Mrs. Dalloway could be dramatized along the plot lines, but too much was being compacted into too little time. I had figured that To the Lighthouse, and The Waves were too complex to be dramatized and I was correct. I had hopes for Between the Acts which I feel is her most under-appreciated work. The radio play seemed to be set in the era of 1930s technology-- scratchy and with screechy music and dialog lost in the music. Even in her most plot-based books, Woolf uses language as an art form, without the detailed prose her works seem to be missing a great deal. Even Mrs. Galloway does not open with the famous line -- Mrs. Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself." Overall I am a bit disappointed by the collection. Perhaps it is better used by someone who is not a fan or looking for Cliff Notes of her work. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
