The Voyage Out (Deseret Alphabet Edition)

Adeline Virginia Stephen Woolf (1882–1941) was an English author best known for her novels. She is considered one of the most important modernist 20th century authors and also a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device. She suffered from bipolar disorder and, ultimately, committed suicide at the age of fifty-nine. “The Voyage Out” (1915) is Woolf’s first novel. It’s the story of Rachel Vinrace, a naïve young girl who travels to a South American resort for an extended stay. While there, she learns about the wider world, both abroad and at home. This book is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for writing English developed in the mid-19th century at the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah).
