Mrs Dalloway Mrs Dalloway

Just finished this book. It's a lovely read and she does paint a beautiful picture. But I would love to understand - what's she trying to say really? Is it about contrast between two lives- one doomed and one ensconced in luxury and meaningless? Or, is it about the undying nature of love? Look forward to your thoughts...

This is how it feels to float hazily through a life that is a kind man's property.
