A vivid portrait of a single day in a woman’s life. While Mrs Dalloway makes last minute preparations for the perfect summer party, she is flooded with memories of faraway times. She may see the friend who has never really stopped loving her; or the friend with whom she had her life’s happiest moment. Meanwhile, the shell-shocked Septimus is struggling with his life on the same London day.
Widely believed to be Virginia Woolf’s finest novel.
