The Definitive Edition
The events of this novel occupy a single June day in Central London as wealthy and fashionable society hostess Clarissa Dalloway is preparing for a party she is to give that evening. Through her thoughts and memories, and the voices of others who have touched on her life and will attend her party, Virginia Woolf breaks away from the traditional form of the English novel and shows her genius as a writer who is both accessible and popular.
This edition of Virginia Woolf's popular fourth novel draws together all the textual variants to provide a text that represents as closely as possible Woolf's final intentions.
