incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.
Clarissa Dalloway
is a woman of high-society – vivacious, hospitable and sociable on the surface,
yet underneath troubled and dissatisfied with her life in post-war Britain.
This disillusionment is an emotion that bubbles under the surface of all of
Woolf’s characters in Mrs Dalloway.
Centred around
one day in June where Clarissa is preparing for and holding a party, her
interior monologue mingles with those of the other central characters in a
stream of consciousness, entwining, yet never actually overriding the pervading
sense of isolation that haunts each person.
One of Virginia
Woolf’s most accomplished novels, Mrs Dalloway is widely regarded as one of the
most revolutionary works of the 20th century in its style and the themes that
it tackles. The sense that Clarissa has married the wrong person, her past love
for another female friend and the death of an intended party guest all serve to
amplify this stultifying existence.
