Trouble Trouble

·

Oh my, oh my! Those characters from The Fox were quite troubled! The relationship between that March and Banford was quite odd. No two women should have to live and fend for themselves! And the way March dresses?! It’s a wonder how she was ever able to attract any kind of man with her attitude… View More

A Respect for Septimus

·

I really do respect Septimus, he is so dedicated to his work. He has knowledge he needs to share, he has this information that the world needs to know and I can respect that. This reminds me of my work, “Key to All Mythologies”. We are both searching for a universal thought, while they are… View More

Mrs. Dalloway part 1

·

Mrs. Dalloway is a charming lady. I very much enjoy the idea that she can make her own world where ever she is. A gentleman described her as worldly, and I think that is so appropriate for a lady. She should only have to fuss over her dinner parties. I would love to meet the lovely Mrs…. View More

I do believe this shows us, the readers, the aspect of how much of the Britain history has an influence to writers such as the writers like Ms. Woolf. It… View More

Introspective Dalloway

·

Dear Chettam, I agree with your words on Mrs. Dalloway. She seems to understand a great deal of things, you know. Many of the characters seem to be introspective in that way, or at least, the audience gets to be since the narration flows through their consciousness’s. I do agree that with this introspective, you… View More

More connections than you’d think…

·

Good Heavens- I shall try and make this analysis comprehensible. Where to begin? And what to say? I feel as if Mrs. Dalloway is speaking on heavy themes here, if one is to look beyond the ordinary. What to make of all mumbling and tumbling around within the syntax. A woman writer, say? That’s interesting,… View More
