Virginia Woolf´s singular technique in Mrs Dalloway heralds a break with the traditional novel form and reflects a genuine humanity and a concern with the experiences that both enrich and stultify existence. Society hostess, Clarissa Dalloway is giving a party. her thoughts and sensations on that one day, and the interior monologues of others whose lives are interwoven with hers gradually reveal the characters of the central protagonists. Clarissa´s life is touched by tragedy as the events in her day run parallel to those of Septimus Warren Smith, whose madness escalates a his life draws toward inevitable suicide.
