Livre numérique
Mrs. Dalloway chronicles a June day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway–a day
that is taken up with running minor errands in preparation for a party and
that is punctuated, toward the end, by the suicide of a young man she has
never met. In giving an apparently ordinary day such immense resonance and
significance–infusing it with the elemental conflict between death and
life–Virginia Woolf triumphantly discovers her distinctive style as a
novelist. Originally published in 1925, Mrs. Dalloway is Woolf’s first
complete rendering of what she described as the “luminous envelope” of
consciousness: a dazzling display of the mind’s inside as it plays over the
brilliant surface and darker depths of reality.
