I enjoyed this re-engagement with the themes of Mrs. Dalloway. The author has approached Woolf's novel in three ways through three different characters whose perspectives alternate. First, there's Virginia Woolf herself, who is in the process of writing Mrs. Dalloway. Having read her journals and biographies, Cunningham shares her thoughts as she crafted Mrs. Dalloway, including major decisions she made about the events of the novel.
