The many faces of Mrs. Dalloway
Posting this week reminded me of the beauty of literature, the main beauty, which has nothing to do with beautiful language or the actual act of writing, but more with the many interpretations that can come from one set of words. I see Mrs. Dalloway as a social commentary of WWI England, but I noticed many of my classmates focussed more on the element of personal decisions made by the characters, and how we might find ourself in many of these situations ourselves, in one way or another. Multifaceted texts are what makes this so fun, and proves that the study of English is no small order.
