About this title

Synopsis

Places the novel in the context of its times, discusses its style, characters, and themes, and describes its role in the development of the techniques of stream-of-consciousness writing

Synopsis

This book argues that "Mrs Dalloway" is a major work of feminist fiction, a commentary on English society after World War I, an assessment of Victorian values, and an important example of the stream-of-consciousness narrative technique. In exploring the intricate structure of the novel, the book draws on recent critciism of Woolf's work.
