Description

Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) was a British writer, a vivid representative of the modernist direction in literature, and a member of the famous Bloomsbury circle. She authored novels that became classics of the “stream of consciousness.” Her works reveal the history of English modernism, with its love of words, their sound, shades of meaning, and associations. Woolf experimented with the stream of consciousness and emphasized not only the psychological but also the emotional component in the behavior of the main characters. Her novels reach for the very core of life—its warmth and tremor, air and light—and convey this sharp sense of life to the reader. “Mrs. Dalloway” is a masterful novel by Virginia Woolf in which the past, present, and future merge into a single momentous day in June 1923.
