Download or read book Jacob's Room (The Original 1922 Hogarth Press Edition) written by Virginia Woolf and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel centres, in a very ambiguous way, around the life story of the protagonist Jacob Flanders, and is presented entirely by the impressions other characters have of Jacob (except for those times when we do indeed get Jacob's perspective). Thus, although it could be said that the book is primarily a character study and has little in the way of plot or background, the narrative is constructed as a void in place of the central character, if indeed the novel can be said to have a 'protagonist' in conventional terms.
