I re-read this as my selection for one of my book clubs. For some reason I was putting off reading it, and I really wish I hadn't. I had forgotten how beautiful the language is. The story follows a day in the life of Mrs Dalloway - she is giving a party that night.

This book is not for everyone, for two reasons. First, in terms of things happening, there's not much. Second, Woolf wrote this in a stream of consciousness style (no breaks or chapters, etc), which some folks don't like.

If you aren't bothered by those two things, I highly recommend this. The point of view flits around from person to person - not necessarily all main characters, either. And as I said, there's some truly beautiful language.
