"Published in 1925, Mrs Dalloway is considered one of Woolf’sfinest novels. It is about a single day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway,an upper-class Englishwoman who is preparing for a party shewill host in the evening, and a day in the life of depressed WorldWar I veteran Septimus Warren Smith. Through their streams ofconsciousness, Woolf explores marriage, mental illness, sexuality,and larger existential questions in a post-war society. Mrs Dallowayhas been adapted extensively across film, radio and the theatre,and continues to be one of the most widely read novels from thetwentieth century."
