Like whiskey. Packed full of flavour - but it's all a bit much for me. Preferred the Austentatious flirting to the existential crises - and the passages of similes stacked upon metaphors stacked upon similes stacked upon... Still as good as it gets. 2020, fiction, novel Once I got into this book I really tuned in and thoroughly enjoyed it. I could sense Virginia's active fertile mind. The past era was obvious with everyone walking around London. Captivating descriptions eg "moments like this are buds on the tree of life" p24.

Fear no more the heat of the sun.' Mrs Dalloway, Virginia Woolf's fourth novel, offers the reader an impression of a single June day in London in 1923. Clarissa Dalloway, the wife of a Conservative member of parliament, is preparing to give an evening party, while the shell-shocked Septimus Warren Smith hears the birds in Regent's Park chattering in Greek. There seems to be nothing, except perhaps London, to link Clarissa and Septimus. She is middle-aged and prosperous, with a sheltered happy life behind her; Smith isyoung, poor, and driven to hatred of himself and the whole human race. Yet bo. No library descriptions found. |

I find it exhausting to read as I have to pay so much attention to it and can't simply relax and float along with it.
