Engaging with themes of visibility and subjectivity, the book explores Virginia Woolf's literary evolution, particularly after the 1927 solar eclipse. Emily Dalgarno analyzes Woolf's shift from painting to photography and her incorporation of diverse influences, including psychoanalysis and Greek tragedy. Through detailed textual analyses of works like To the Lighthouse and The Waves, Dalgarno highlights Woolf's ongoing fascination with Greek translation and the implications of her portrayal of the visible world in shaping her autobiographical narratives.
