Mrs Dalloway's stream of consciousness narrative has led some people to compare it to Joyce's Ulysses (which Woolf had read and had not liked). Via her reminiscing, we are also introduced to other characters, such as Septimus Smith, who each have their own narrative - sometimes shifting within a sentence - and most of whom will be at the party later that evening. Going around London reminds her of her youth and as she goes about her day, the reader gets a glimpse into her past. This book takes the reader through a single day in the life and thoughts of 51 year old Clarissa Dalloway as she prepares for a party that she is hosting that evening. The title character first appeared in Woolf's novel, The Voyage Out. Mrs Dalloway is a novel by Virginia Woolf, first published in 1925.
