Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf

Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf. Tracing a day in the life of society hostess Clarissa Dalloway, Virginia Woolf triumphantly discovers her distinctive style as a novelist. Originally published in 1925, Mrs Dalloway is her first complete rendering of what Woolf described as the ‘luminous envelope’ of consciousness: a dazzling display of the mind’s inside as it plays over the brilliant surface and darker depths of reality.
