Publisher Description: This volume begins with a biography of Virginia Woolf that provides essential information about the novelist's life. Original essays present an overview of Mrs. Dalloway, including information about the work's origins and composition, analyze the world events and social conditions that provide context for the work, and discuss Woolf's efforts to create a new form of the novel appropriate for a new age. Republished essays include a discussion of the connections between Mrs. Dalloway and Toni Morrison's Sula, an exploration of the non-linear representations of time in the work, and a discussion of the historical situation that informed the novel. |
