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.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf nasceu em Londres a 25 de janeiro de 1882, filha de Sir Leslie Stephen, escritor e historiador ilustre da Inglaterra vitoriana. Desde cedo ligada a grupos de intelectuais, casou em 1912 com Leonard Woolf e com ele fundou a editora Hogarth Press, responsável pela revelação de autores como Katherine Mansfield e T. S. Eliot e pela publicação das suas próprias obras. Reconhecida como uma das mais proeminentes figuras do modernismo britânico, destacam-se entre os seus trabalhos os romances Mrs Dalloway (1925), Orlando (1928) e As Ondas (1931), assim como o ensaio Um Quarto que Seja Seu (1929). Após sucessivas crises depressivas e não suportando o isolamento provocado pelo agravar da Segunda Guerra Mundial, suicida-se a 28 de março de 1941, em Lewes.
