Night and Day by Virginia Woolf first published on 20 October 1919.
This is one of the more traditional of Woolf's works, here we can see her starting to break free, with an interesting mix of both seriousness and humour, Woolf shows that she has definitely found her own style.
The novel is set in Edwardian London, Night and Day contrasts the daily lives and romantic attachments of the two acquaintances, Mary Datchet and Katharine Hilbery.
Katharine Hilbery and Mary Dachet are two young women of marriageable age, and although both have prospects, they also have other areas of interest—Katharine is passionate about her intellectual pursuits and Mary works on a campaign for women’s suffrage. Both women must learn to balance their expectations for their futures and their prospects for marriage with their own passions and happiness.
One of Virginia Woolf’s lesser known, earlier novels, Night and Day relies less heavily on the ‘stream of consciousness’ style that is so distinctive in the author’s later novels.
