For now
🕑 Added 2021-09-11 10:16:53 +0000 UTC“For now she need not think of anybody. She could be herself, by herself. And that was what now she often felt the need of - to think; well not even to think. To be silent; to be alone. All the being and the doing, expansive, glittering, vocal, evaporated; and one shrunk, with a sense of solemnity, to being oneself, a wedge-shaped core of darkness, something invisible to others... and this self having shed its attachments was free for the strangest adventures.”
Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse

If you start at the beginning you get to watch her growth. It helps me understand her ending much better. If we really are supposed to understand such things.

I’ve never read Virginia Woolf. Recommendation on which one to read first?
