What to say about Mrs. Dalloway? It was just as good as everyone said it was, if not better. In its converging and diverging, its rhapsodies of the picayune and moments of fleeting transcendance, it builds and becomes an experienced sensation of the world of humans, the worlds of humans. I found in it an amazing scope and truth.

26729 I've loved her work so much thus far that I thought it was a travesty not to read her much-vaunted masterpiece!

I was very young, and very certain back then. But clearly, I loved this book.
