Publisher Description
Delivered in Woolf’s trademark stream of consciousness, Mrs Dalloway charts a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, a prosperous politician’s wife as she plans an evening party, and how the actions of Septimus Smith, a traumatized war veteran, impinge on her world.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
As Clarissa Dalloway prepares to host a party in 1920s London, she is unexpectedly reunited with her old friend Peter Walsh in a novel that shifts among the inner monologues of its many characters and is darkened by the terrors and hallucinations of parallel protagonist Septimus Smith. Juliet Stevenson s performance with its lyricism and lilt is perfectly matched to Woolf s text and transports the listener. Stevenson produces a delightful range of distinct voices her introspective, fragile Clarissa and stormy Peter are particularly strong.
