About the author

(Adeline) Virginia Woolf was an English novelist and essayist regarded as one of the foremost modernist literary figures of the twentieth century.

During the interwar period, Woolf was a significant figure in London literary society and a member of the Bloomsbury Group. Her most famous works include the novels Mrs. Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927), and Orlando (1928), and the book-length essay A Room of One's Own (1929) with its famous dictum, "a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction."

Reviews

Short, erratic, but helps pass the time.

[Jaynyah Bland · Rating 4 out of 5]

The writing was beautiful with complicated and varied sentence structures, amazing descriptions, and carefully chosen words filled this book. But it didn't have any chapters nor commas and periods.

This story took a lot to read. There were a lot of characters named in the story. It was a story I had to read for my Lit English course for my master's degree track. Would I read it again? Maybe...

I just read "Mrs. Dalloway in Bond Street" 1923 cause i didn't find it alone; so i took this random edition.
