´One of the most moving, revolutionary artworks of the twentieth century´ Michael Cunningham
Clarissa Dalloway, elegant and vivacious, is preparing for a party and remembering those she once loved. In another part of London, Septimus Warren Smith is suffering from shell-shock and on the brink of madness. Smith´s day interweaves with that of Clarissa and her friends, their lives converging as the party reaches its glittering climax. Virginia Woolf´s masterly novel, in which she perfected the interior monologue, brings past, present and future together on one momentous day in June 1923.
