Clarissa Dalloway y su invitada

by Virginia Woolf

Overview

Clarissa Dalloway y su invitada reúne dos cuentos que orbitan alrededor de la aclamada novela La señora Dalloway (1925): «La señora Dalloway en Bond Street» y «El vestido nuevo». La autora juega con la cadencia a través de la puntuación y nos sumerge en un flujo de conciencia donde lo personal e íntimo se funde con lo impersonal y ajeno. «No tengo la menor duda de que he descubierto la manera de comenzar a decir algo (a los cuarenta) con mi propia voz; y esto me interesa de tal manera que creo que puedo seguir adelante sin necesidad de elogios».

The landmark modern novel Mrs. Dalloway creates a portrait of a single day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway as she orchestrates the last-minute details of a grand party. But before Virginia Woolf wrote this masterwork, she explored in a series of fascinating stories a similar revelry in the mental and physical excitement of a party. Wonderfully captivating, the seven stories in Mrs. Dalloway's Party create a dynamic and delightful portrait of what Woolf called "party consciousness." As parallel expressions of the themes of Mrs. Dalloway, these stories provide a valuable window into Woolf's writing mind and a further testament to her extraordinary genius.
