Jacob's Room Paperback - 1950
by Virginia Woolf
Set in the halcyon days of pre-World War I innocence, Virginia Woolf's third novel follows the progress of a young man as he moves from adolescence to adulthood in a hazy rite of passage. Wandering through the windswept shores of Cornwall to the sun-scorched landscape of Greece, his character is revealed in a stream of loosely related incidents, thoughts, and impressions.
About this book
Jacob's Room is the third novel written by Virginia Woolf. It was published on 26 October 1922 by Hogarth Press.
The novel centers around the life of Jacob Flanders, but indirectly. More of a character study than a story, Jacob is viewed through the eyes of other characters.

Summary
The story of a man’s life from a day in his childhood to the day of his death. “Jacob’s Room...comes as a tremendous surprise. The impossible has occurred. The style closely resembles that of Kew Gardens....The break with Night and Day and even with The Voyage Out is complete. A new type of fiction has swum into view” (E. M. Forster).
First line
So of course," wrote Betty Flanders, pressing her heels rather deeper in the sand, "there was nothing for it but to leave."
