About the book

Virginia Woolf's Between the Acts is set at an English country house on the eve of the Second World War, where villagers and guests gather for an amateur pageant depicting scenes from national history. As the performance unfolds, private tensions, memories and desires surface among the audience. Woolf's final novel explores English identity, art, community, history and the fragile boundary between performance and everyday life.
