    • Abstract:
      An essay is presented on author Virginia Woolf's and the modern novel's manner of expressing man's moral dilemma and spiritual anxiety, which places greater interpretative demands on readers. It states that Woolf's style models Christian eschatology, a concept that recognizes the understanding brought about by knowledge of an end of the world. Woolf reportedly allows readers to contemplate death which may bring them integration to a broken existence.
