Who Speaks First? Class and Audibility in the Opening Line of Mrs Dalloway 2 April 2026 Dr Rhonda Mayne, Independent Scholar Virginia Woolf’s novel Mrs Dalloway (1925) opens with the now-canonical sentence: ‘Mrs Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself’.[1] The lin…

Delighted to have my article published in The Modernist Review. It explores how the opening line of Mrs Dalloway distributes voices in ways that make social class audible.

Virginia Woolf’s Mrs Dalloway centers around two mirrored characters who don’t even know each other. Although over a century old, it’s still incredibly relevant to today. #virginawoolf #classicliterature #booksky #mrsdalloway #bookreview #classicbook #bookrecommendation

Vanessa Bell Is Not at Home - Believer Magazine In Virginia Woolf’s novel Mrs. Dalloway, which celebrated its centennial in May, the title character remembers a friend mocking her years before; the young Clarissa had the makings, jeered Peter Walsh...

A generous and intelligent essay on Vanessa Bell by Heather Christle. I was especially struck by how the figure of the host reframes domestic modernism, and by the return to Mrs Dalloway as a point of pressure. #virginiawoolf #modernism #vanessabell #mrsdalloway

So much in this excellent book to think about. Including this: "Virginia Woolf felt strongly that human beings ought to be thought about in the language of verbs not nouns; what they DO matters more than what they ARE." #virginiawoolf #mrsdalloway #edwardmendelson

A hundred years after Mrs. Dalloway, I spent August reading seven novels by women—each exploring silence, longing, and generational trauma.
