Summary
It is a June day in London in 1923, and the lovely Clarissa Dalloway is having a party. Whom will she see? Her friend Peter, back from India, who has never really stopped loving her? What about Sally, with whom Clarissa had her life’s happiest moment?
Meanwhile, the shell-shocked Septimus Smith is struggling with his life on the same London day.
Luminously beautiful, Mrs. Dalloway uses the internal monologues of the characters to tell a story of inter-war England. With this, Virginia Woolf changed the novel forever.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Love it.
I can't review Mrs. Dalloway.
Everyone has to form their own impression of it, anticipation of an incident or my impression of a character will only detract from the next readers' experience.
Juliette Stevenson reads it beautifully and her voice is entirely appropriate.
There should be a longer pause at the end of the novel, before Audible hopes anything. Otherwise, excellent.

Fantastic narration by Juliet Stevenson
I loved this narration which was excellent - fluid and light and allowed the wonderfully rich content of the book to shine through

A beautifully read modernist classic
Although the storyline meandered at times, this is a beautifully read rendition of a classic modernist novel.

Nicely read
Nicely read, but strange division into 63 tiny chapters - made it harder to check back to earlier references. And, as flagged by another review, the Audible farewell crashes in almost on the final syllable.

Delightful
An excellent book.
Delightful and yet insightful into the dalliances etc. of society ...and all in one day. Therefore quite a unique form of storytelling. I enjoyed the writing and the narration complemented it perfectly.

Just beautiful
A work of such breathtaking poetry and insight that I can scarcely believe someone actually managed to write it. I will never be able to separate the luminous text from Juliet Stevenson’s excellent narration in my mind, they were the perfect combination.

I loved it, I found it easier to listen to than read especially the appraisals of the characters at the party
