The whitewashed Victorian façade holds the sunlight brightly when the weather is good. She lived in this house, at 22 Hyde Park Gate, in west London, for the first twenty-two years of her life. Here is where the artist Adeline Virginia Stephen was born. This essay is from an introduction to a new Italian translation, by Anna Nadotti, of “To the Lighthouse,” which will be published later this month by Einaudi.
