Mrs. Dalloway

Virginia Woolf's 1925 novel chronicles a single day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, a high-society woman in post-World War I London, as she prepares to host a party. The narrative delves deeply into Clarissa's interior world, offering a stream-of-consciousness exploration of her memories, regrets, and reflections on life, love, and societal expectations. Central to her emotional landscape is her profound and enduring connection to Sally Seton, a vivid first love from her youth.
