‘She always had the feeling that it was very, very dangerous to live even one day.’ Clarissa Dalloway is a refined and introspective woman preparing to host an evening party. As she moves through the city, memories of her past intertwine with the present, revealing her quiet struggles with love, regret, and the passage of time. Parallel to Clarissa’s story is that of Septimus Smith, a shell-shocked war veteran grappling with his own haunting thoughts, whose fate subtly echoes the fragility of human existence. Virginia Woolf’s Mrs Dalloway is a modernist masterpiece that offers an intimate glimpse into the inner lives of its characters over the course of a single day in post-World War I London. Her stream-of-consciousness narrative captures the fleeting nature of time, the weight of societal expectations, and the deeply personal yet universal quest for meaning. Lyrical and introspective, Mrs Dalloway is a novel of extraordinary depth and beauty, exploring themes of identity, mental illness, and the complex interplay between public appearances and private emotions.
