On its surface, \u003ci\u003eNight and Day\u003c\/i\u003e plays with the tropes of Shakespearean comedy: We follow the romantic endeavors of two friends, Katharine Hilbery and Mary Datchet, as love is confessed and rebuffed, partners switched, weddings planned and cancelled, until we finally arrive at two engagements. But these dramas play out against the first steps of the women's suffrage movement, as women's roles in society fitfully started to shift away from charm, subservience, and self-sacrifice toward equal partnership. Ultimately, Woolf's novel is a subversive challenge to the male-writer establishment of the Edwardian age--Henry James, E.M. Forster, their forebears and successors--that undercuts the unequal gender dialectic on which their plots depend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Virginia Woolf of \u003ci\u003eNight and Day\u003c\/i\u003e is every bit as brilliant, funny, sharp, and imbued with a deep love of language as in her celebrated later works \u003ci\u003eMrs. Dalloway\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eTo the Lighthouse\u003c\/i\u003e. What makes \u003ci\u003eNight and Day \u003c\/i\u003eso remarkable is its devotion to \"real life.\" As bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eFates and Furies \u003c\/i\u003eLauren Groff writes in her introduction, \"Virginia Woolf, in pushing outward in this book toward an articulation of a new and better kind of marriage, doesn't stop for a moment to try to seduce the reader into loving her characters--she is too fixated on breaking new ground and exploring her ideas.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition, beautifully illustrated by Kristen Radtke, celebrates the 100th anniversary of this key work not only of the Woolf canon, but also of the vital history of feminist literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVirginia Woolf (1882-1941) is the author of acclaimed works of fiction including \u003ci\u003eMrs. Dalloway \u003c\/i\u003e(1925), \u003ci\u003eTo the Lighthouse\u003c\/i\u003e (1927), and \u003ci\u003eOrlando\u003c\/i\u003e (1928) as well as the feminist call to arms, \u003ci\u003eA Room of One's Own \u003c\/i\u003e(1929).
