Now you can live a day in the life of a young woman in 1920s London. Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway follows one day of upper-class housewife Clarissa Dalloway's life as she plans and hosts a dinner party at her house. Along the way she meets with people from both her past--a former suitor whose proposal she rejected and whom she no longer gets along with--and her present--her distant husband, Richard; her daughter, Elizabeth; and her daughter's teacher, Miss Kilman, whom she despises (and who feels the same towards Clarissa).
Along the way, we separately meet a young veteran who was once a poet and a romantic before experiencing the horrors of war and becoming suicidal. He is diagnosed with mental illness and is being forced to separate from his wife and go to a mental asylum. Enter the world of Clarissa Dalloway and enjoy the writings of one of the most prolific female authors of the 20th century with this beautifully rejuvenated edition of Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway.Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Virginia Woolf was one of the most prolific female authors of the twentieth century, writing more fiction works than James Joyce and William Faulkner combined. She was well-known for her stream-of-consciousness writing, and her essays and stories often focused on popular cultural topics and ideas, such as discrimination, war, social class, and politics. Some of her most popular works were her novels To the Lighthouse (1927) and Mrs. Dalloway (1925).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Virginia Woolf's groundbreaking novel, \*Mrs. Dalloway\*, the narrative unfolds over the course of a single day in post-World War I London, intertwining the lives of Clarissa Dalloway and Septimus Warren Smith. Woolf employs a stream-of-consciousness technique, allowing readers to delve into the intricate thoughts and emotions of her characters, reflecting the fragmented modernist style that characterizes much of the early 20th century literature. The novel masterfully juxtaposes the superficiality of high society with the profound existential crises faced by individuals, revealing themes of mental illness, the passage of time, and the search for meaning in a disjointed world. Virginia Woolf, a key figure in the modernist literary movement, was deeply influenced by her own experiences with mental health and the societal roles imposed on women during her time. Growing up in a literary family and facing personal tragedies, Woolf's insights into the complexities of human consciousness and identity are poignantly rendered in \*Mrs. Dalloway\*. Her innovative narrative style reflects her desire to explore the inner lives of her characters more intimately, challenging conventional storytelling methods. \*Mrs. Dalloway\* is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of literary form and the depths of human psychology. Woolf's poignant exploration of social and personal perspectives invites readers to reflect on their own lives amidst the backdrop of a rapidly changing world, making it a timeless work that resonates across generations.
