The Mark on the Wall
About this book
How much can a single, ordinary detail reveal about the human mind?
First published in 1917, The Mark on the Wall by Virginia Woolf is a pioneering modernist short story that transformed the way fiction could represent thought. What begins as a simple observation—a small mark on a wall—unfolds into a rich stream of reflection, questioning reality, history, authority, and the nature of consciousness itself.
Through her innovative stream-of-consciousness style, Woolf draws readers deep into the mind, showing how everyday moments spark complex inner worlds. The story quietly challenges rigid structures of knowledge and certainty, favoring imagination, curiosity, and personal perception.
This eBook presents the original text in a clear, accessible format, allowing readers to experience one of Woolf's earliest and most influential experiments in modernist fiction.
Inside this eBook, you'll explore:
A landmark example of stream-of-consciousness writing
Woolf's early break from traditional narrative form
