Mrs Dalloway is my least favourite of Virginia Woolf’s novels so far - perhaps because it is the most impenetrable. I hope that with further analysis it reveals itself to me, for the writing is certainly beautiful. I enjoyed the introduction.

It was perfectly executed in my opinion, with all the odd ends it needed to add to a sense of profound loss. The acceptance of death towards the end -- how sad!
