Virginia Woolf (Stream of Consciousness)

Virginia Woolf was a pioneering writer known for her use of "stream of consciousness," a narrative technique that captures the continuous flow of a character’s thoughts, feelings, and perceptions in real time. Instead of traditional narration, her writing immerses readers in the inner life of characters, often blending memories, sensations, and reflections seamlessly. This approach offers a vivid, intimate understanding of characters’ minds, emphasizing subjective experience over chronological events. Woolf’s innovative style aimed to depict the complexity of human consciousness and challenge conventional storytelling, making her a key figure in modernist literature.
