“Books Were Not in Their Line”: The Material Book and the Deceptive Scene of Reading in To the Lighthouse
This chapter explores the overwhelming presence of reading in To the Lighthouse. Richardson argues that the act of being read is a major concern in the novel, including measuring intellectual achievement, literary disputes, and concerns about the endurance of authors over time. Most characters are inadequate readers, disparate from Woolf's own passionate experience as a reader.
