Beschrijving uitgever
In «Mrs. Dalloway», Virginia Woolf details Clarissa Dalloway’s preparations for a party of which she is to be hostess, exploring the hidden springs of thought and action in one day of a woman’s life.
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.
Klantrecensies
A turn on Ulysses
I am a great fan of Virginia but never understood Mrs Dalloway but now having finally read Ulysses. I can now better place Mrs Dalloway in her writing. It is most probably the book Joyce set out to write but was unable to write. Needless to say I have fallen in love with Ulysses too.
