Material type:
TextSeries: Collins classicsPublication details: London: Harper Press, 2013Edition: Harper Press paperback editionDescription: x, 210 pages ; 18 cmISBN: 9780007934409 (pbk)Subject(s): Women -- England -- London -- Social conditions -- Fiction | London (England) -- Social life and customs -- 20th century -- Fiction | Married womenDDC classification: 823.912 Summary: Classics. 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.
