Jahrhunderts treiben und mit ihr treiben ihre Gedanken, reichen sich Vergangenheit und Gegenwart in einem unvergleichlichen Auf und Ab die Hand.

Presented here are two of the most important books of the early 20th century by one of the most original and groundbreaking writers of her era, the feminist literary pioneer Virginia Woolf. First, the 1925 sensation Mrs. Dalloway, the breakthrough novel that solidified Woolf's reputation as a fresh new voice of her generation.

Set in post-First World War Britain, Woolf’s masterpiece follows Clarissa Dalloway, a vivacious yet self-reflective upper-class woman, through a single day in her life. Preparing for a party that very evening, Clarissa keeps busy by moving through the streets of London, her thoughts drifting between past and present, revealing lost loves, secret regrets and the quiet ache of grief. Interwoven with Clarissa’s narrative is that of Septimus Warren Smith, a war veteran who suffers terribly from his traumatic past. As their two lives tangentially cross...

Clarissa Dalloway is busy planning a party when her old suitor, Peter Walsh, shows up at her hour. On the outside, Mrs. Dalloway is seen to be society's perfect image of a housewife-dutiful, loyal, and sensible. But as soon as her past lover makes his appearance, Mrs. Dalloway can't help but remember their passionate affairs. She is faced with her choices, all of which strike a fear of growing old within her. These characters and their stories, rich...

A single day becomes the entirety of a life in Virginia Woolf’s enduring exploration of a woman’s soul and purpose.

But elsewhere in London, a stranger, a damaged World War I veteran, makes irreversible choices of his own - choices that will intrude on Mrs. Dalloway’s reverie before the night is over.

Dorothy Darling, 77 Jahre alt und misstrauische Eigenbrötlerin, lebt schon fast ihr halbes Leben in Shelley House im beschaulichen Chalcot.

Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf, details a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway in post-World War I England. Clarissa visits London in the morning, getting ready to host a party that evening. The nice day reminds her of her youth and makes her wonder about her choice of husband; she married the reliable Richard Dalloway instead of the enigmatic and demanding Peter Walsh, and she "had not the option" to be with Sally Seton for whom she felt strongly.

Within our minds, time flows eternal in parallel streams, carrying a host of memories and conflicting emotions and we are connected by webs of intermittent visibility to the lives of many whom we have never even met. This is what we come to realise as we join Clarissa Dalloway on a fine June day in 1923, as she prepares a party she is giving that night for London's social and political elite. Virginia Woolf's often teasing portrait of British characters at every level of society remains remarkably accurate to this day.

Mrs. Dalloway was the breakthrough novel by Virginia Woolf that solidified her reputation as one of the most important writers of her era. Written in a new, free-wheeling style for the time, the book details a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, a British socialite in post-First World War England. The book takes place in a single day, and describes the eponymous lead character as she prepares for and hosts a party. Looping backwards and forwards in time, the listener is given a glimpse into the mind of Mrs. Dalloway, and several of her guests.

Mrs. Dalloway è il primo grande romanzo di Virginia Woolf, pubblicato nel 1925. Nell'arco di una sola giornata i fili invisibili delle emozioni uniscono...

In the aftermath of World War I, Clarissa Dalloway is an upper-class politician’s wife, who longs for the carefree, impassioned days of her youth. Her marriage to a sensible man gives her many opportunities to socialize and progress in society, but this practicality also prevented her from following other romantic and personal passions. These old regrets come to new light as Clarissa is reintroduced to Peter Walsh, a man she loved—and who had proposed to her—in her younger days.
