评分 评分意识流小说真是让人又爱又恨。 爱的是,它对内心世界的探索与刻画如此深入细腻,透过这面镜子,我们可以看到故事背后更为广阔的现实世界;恨的是,它的叙事如此天马行空羚羊挂角,稍不留神就让你目眩神迷莫名其妙。 我曾四次尝试阅读《达洛维夫人》,都以失败告终,且每次都没...
评分《达洛卫夫人》以“一天的时间来写尽一个女人的一生”,而我用了一天的时间,来了解达洛卫夫人的一生。 她从小生活富裕,从来不知道穷是什么感觉,所以她无法理解自己女儿的贫穷的家庭教师—一基尔曼小姐对富人的那种仇视。后来她和彼得恋爱,俩人无话不谈,从艺术到...

Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, published in 1925, was a bestseller both in Britain and the United States despite its departure from typical novelistic style. Mrs. Dalloway and Woolf's subsequent book, To the Lighthouse, have generated the most critical attention and are the most widely studied of Woolf's novels.
The action of Mrs. Dalloway takes place during a single day in June 1923 in London, England. This unusual organizational strategy creates a special problem for the novelist: how to craft characters deep enough to be realistic while treating only one day in their lives. Woolf solved this problem with what she called a "tunneling" technique, referring to the way her characters remember their pasts. In experiencing these characters' recollections, readers derive for themselves a sense of background and history to characters that, otherwise, a narrator would have had to provide.
In a sense, Mrs. Dalloway is a novel without a plot. Instead of creating major situations between characters to push the story forward, Woolf moved her narrative by following the passing hours of a day. The book is composed of movements from one character to another, or of movements from the internal thoughts of one character to the internal thoughts of another.
Mrs. Dalloway has been called a flâneur novel, which means it depicts people walking about a city. (Flâneur is the French word for a person who enjoys walking around a city often with no other purpose than to see the sights.) The book, as is typical of the Flâneur novel, makes the city, its parks, and its streets as interesting as the characters who inhabit them.
Clarissa Dalloway's party, which is the culminating event of the book, ties the narrative together by gathering the group of friends Clarissa thinks about throughout her day. It also concludes the secondary story of the book, the story of Septimus Warren Smith, by having Dr. Bradshaw arrive at the party and mention that one of his patients committed suicide that day.
The book's major competing themes are isolation and community, or the possibilities and limits of communicativeness, as evidenced by Clarissa's abiding sense of being alone and by her social skills, which bring people together at her parties.
對於她如你只讀一次等如跳來讀,永不完的詩
评分第一句话很吸引人,前两页让人迷茫,往后突然又变得有意思起来。很典型的意识流小说,有时态的语言意味着可以存在更多可能。
评分definitely uneasy process butum...let's say, it's worth the effort.
