Published two years after Mrs. Dalloway and three years before The Waves To the Lighthouse "displays Woolf's technique of narrating through stream of consciousness and imagery at its most assured rich and suggestive" Drabble 990. "In its portrayal of life. it gives us an interlude of vision that must stand at the head of all Virginia Woolf's work" New York Times. To the Lighthouse was "written at the height of her luminous Impressionist vision. It is the sunniest of her books and shows the obsession with rendering the passage of time which dominated her later work. With her prosperous upper middle class academic background of the late Victorian establishment Virginia Woolf is always walking a tight-rope in her desire to get away from it and portray ordinary people as a novelist should hence the mixture of respect and irony with which she surveys its security and solid values" Connolly. It was named by Modern Library as one of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. In 2005 the novel was chosen by TIME magazine as one of the one hundred best English-language novels since 1923.

To a Representative of the P.E.N. Club Buenos Aires. "Dear Sir I am in receipt of your letter of the 4th July and wish to express my deep thanks for the honour you on behalf of the P.E.N. Club of Buenos Aires have done me in inviting me in such generous terms to attend the Congress in August 1936. I have taken some days in which to consider the matter; but I much regret to say that much as I should like to come I fear it is impossible for me to arrange it. My engagements here are such that I could not be out of England for so long a time as would be necessary. Therefore I am reluctantly obliged to decline your offer. But I need hardly say how much I appreciate the great generosity which you have shown me both in wishing for my presence and in offering to defray the costs of the journey. It is with the greatest regret that I find myseld sic unable to avail myself of so great an opportunity for visiting your country and making acquaintance with your work. Believe me dear Sir with profound gratitude and best wishes Very sincerely Virginia Woolf." Not in "Collected Letters" edited by Nigel Nicolson. Ellis Roberts in July 1935 had asked her to be President of P.E.N. the international author's society but she had declined see Letters vol. 5 p. 414.

Woolf also makes mention of the P.E.N. offer in several other letters during this same period.
