À propos de cet e-book

In "Mrs. Dalloway", Virginia Woolf invites readers to step into the bustling streets of post-World War I London, where Clarissa Dalloway prepares for a high-society party. This seemingly simple premise becomes a window into the intricacies of the human mind, as Woolf weaves together the lives of Clarissa, Septimus (a shell-shocked soldier), and others with seamless narrative shifts. The novel’s revolutionary use of stream-of-consciousness storytelling allows readers to delve deep into the psyche of its characters, offering an intimate and complex portrait of their lives, fears, and regrets.

The central theme of the novel revolves around the passage of time, the impact of societal expectations, and the psychological scars of war. Clarissa’s preoccupation with her past decisions and relationships contrasts with Septimus’s battle with post-traumatic stress disorder, highlighting the stark realities of mental health in a time of crisis. Through Woolf’s brilliant narrative technique, the novel reveals the inner workings of the mind in a way that captures the fragility of life and the need for human connection.

Woolf’s "Mrs. Dalloway" is more than a novel; it’s a meditation on existence itself, beautifully exploring themes of identity, loss, and the fleeting moments that define our lives. If you’re drawn to literature that challenges traditional narrative forms while exploring universal themes with empathy and insight, "Mrs. Dalloway" will captivate you. A must-read for fans of modernist fiction and those seeking profound psychological depth, this book offers a reading experience that resonates long after the final page is turned.
