casperpumpkin 's review for:
Mrs. Dalloway
by Virginia Woolf
Favorite Quotes:
But often now this body she wore...this body, with all its capacities seemed nothing – nothing at all. She had the oddest sense of being herself invisible, unseen; unknown; there being no more marrying, no more having children now, but only this astonishing and rather solemn progress with the rest of them...this being Mrs. Dalloway; not even Clarissa anymore; this being Mrs. Richard Dalloway.
He lay very high on the back of the world. The earth thrilled beneath him. Red flowers grew through his flesh; their stiff leaves rustled by his head.
With twice his wits, she had to see things through his eyes – one of the tragedies of married life with a mind of her own, she must always be quoting Richard...
[I:]t is a thousand pities never to say what one feels…bearing his flowers like a weapon...
So that to know her, any one, one must seek out the people who completed them; even the places.
