Virginia Woolf's Night And Day

In a time when barriers were formidable, Katharine Hilbery defied them all, striving for greatness. Virginia Woolf's amusing novel, Night and Day, tells the tale of this passionate astronomer who resists romantic love and marriage in a witty and unromantic way. Set in the early 1900s, it captures Katharine's daring rebellion against the male-dominated society of the Edwardian era, amidst the suffragette movement and scientific progress.
