“Is this because the room on the fourth floor is too small, because Charles Street is too narrow? Because one’s horizon must stretch till it takes in the world?”
The pressures of needing to be “worldly” and “cultured” amongst certain circles is ridiculous. The fact that we fall into it? More so.

I’m bowing out. I BARELY made it through Mrs. Dalloway that was a quarter of the length of this book. This is the same, Virginia Woolf, stream of consciousness, say every little thing on your mind prose the almost killed me. Thanks but no thanks!

My boyfriend found this entirely by accident after I finished “The Dispossessed” and jokingly suggested it. Prior to the suggestion I had never heard of it. Upon realizing it was a 30s satire and reading the immortal first sentence “Mr. Papenmeyer was ashamed of his celery!” I knew I had to read it. Onward!
