书名：Mrs Dalloway《达洛卫夫人》

中文简介：《达洛维夫人》（Mrs. Dalloway）是由弗吉尼亚·伍尔芙在1925年发表的一部长篇意识流小说。小说描述了主人公克拉丽莎·达洛维在一战后英国一天的生活细节。该小说基于两部短篇《邦德街的达洛维夫人》（Mrs Dalloway in Bond Street）和《首相》(The Prime Minister)，故事围绕达洛维夫人筹备一个上流社会派对而展开。读者视角穿梭时间跨度，并穿插于主人公的思维与现实之间，通过对达洛维夫人一天中生活细节的描述，来塑造她一生的经历以及一战前后整个英国社会。

英文简介：Mrs. Dalloway chronicles a June day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway—a day that is taken up with running minor errands in preparation for a party and that is punctuated, toward the end, by the suicide of a young man she has never met. In giving an apparently ordinary day such immense resonance and significance—infusing it with the elemental conflict between death and life—Virginia Woolf triumphantly discovers her distinctive style as a novelist. Originally published in 1925, Mrs. Dalloway is Woolf's first complete rendering of what she described as the "luminous envelope" of consciousness: a dazzling display of the mind's inside as it plays over the brilliant surface and darker depths of reality.

This edition uses the text of the original British publication of Mrs. Dalloway, which includes changes Woolf made that never appeared in the first or subsequent American editions.
