The Hours: A Novel (Pulitzer Prize, 1999)
In a layered, elegiac narrative, The Hours interweaves three lives across time: Virginia Woolf in her last days, a celebrated poet shadowed by his mother's legacy, and a woman navigating relationships and duty.
Using spare, lyrical prose and structural echoes of modernism, the novel explores love, inheritance, identity, and mortality. Parallel storylines reveal how personal choices and private grief ripple across generations.
Winner of the 1999 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, the work is noted for its emotional precision and formal ambition.
- Themes: modernism, grief, identity
- Style: character-driven, lyrical
- Format: hardcover, 229 pages

This seller was incredible. I purchased an inexpensive (used) book and was almost immediately notified that it shipped on the same day I ordered it. I received it within 2 days. It was exactly as described - it looked like it had never even been read! Great service & a great product. Thanks!
