Wonderfully read by Juliet Stevenson
Such beautiful writing, beautifully read. The story slightly peters out towards the end, but still really enjoyed it. Virginia Woolf has true insight.

Enchanting
I was sorry to finish it. The narration was exquisite, it gave life and added even more depth to a masterpiece of English literature.
I found Stevenson's voice very relaxing to listen to and never monotonous.

A Brilliant Listen
I loved this book from the very beginning. Though hard to follow in places, Virginia Woolf has you from the first page. To The Lighthouse is a funny, sad, brilliant book that I would recommend to anyone who wants to have a book they will love forever.

I loved the language journey into minds and gender issues through observation of ordinary house and garden things.

Star performance of very significant 20C novel
Loved it. This is a tour de force of beautiful writing sensitively converted into audio. Juliet' s reading makes the narrative easy to follow and illuminates key passages. Well worth listening to several times.Thank you so much.

Brilliant Author, Brilliant Narrator
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would, recommend this audiobook to others, and I have. I believe that I read To The Lighthouse many years ago, but its impact was greater hearing it read.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
The narrative is weighted down by the effect of the parents, the power characters, on their children. This sense of claustraphobia infiltrates the book.

Perfection
A wonderful book read wonderfully by the superlative Juliet Stevenson. A sense of knowing the characters intimately, not only as they appear but who they are in their deepest souls. I could listen to it again and again.

Brilliant piece of literature
The narrator does a wonderful job! I find it easier to listen to an audiobook when it comes to modernist stream of consciousness literature.
