'Fear no more the heat of the sun.' Mrs Dalloway, Virginia Woolf's
fourth novel, offers the reader an impression of a single June day
in London in 1923. Clarissa Dalloway, the wife of a Conservative
member of parliament, is preparing to give an evening party, while
the shell-shocked Septimus Warren Smith hears the birds in Regent's
Park chattering in Greek. There seems to be nothing, except perhaps
London, to link Clarissa and Septimus. She is middle-aged and
prosperous, with a sheltered happy life behind her; Smith is young,
poor, and driven to hatred of himself and the whole human race. Yet
both share a terror of existence, and sense the pull of death. The
world of Mrs Dalloway is evoked in Woolf's famous stream of
consciousness style, in a lyrical and haunting language which has
made this, from its publication in 1925, one of her most popular
novels. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's
Classics has made available the widest range of literature from
around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's
commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a
wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions
by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text,
up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
