The Hours

A Novel (Picador Modern Classics)

Michael Cunningham

An inventive and deeply affecting novel exploring the conflicting claims of love and inheritance, hope and despair. The Hours draws on the life and work of Virginia Woolf to tell the intertwined stories of a famous poet and his lifelong friend striving to forge fulfilling lives despite the challenges posed by friends, lovers, and family. Cunningham's prose is passionate, profound, and deeply moving, making this an outstanding achievement.
