Mrs Dalloway, a timeless literary jewel by the renowned Virginia Woolf, is now available in a stunning clothbound edition designed by the talented Coralie Bickford-Smith. This revolutionary work of the 20th century immerses readers in the rich tapestry of human consciousness through its compelling narrative.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of London on a single June day in 1923, Mrs Dalloway follows the elegant Clarissa Dalloway as she prepares for an evening soirée. Her thoughts drift through a labyrinth of past loves and forgotten connections, while across the city, we meet the troubled mind of Septimus Warren Smith, a war veteran confronting the shadows of his trauma. Woolf expertly weaves these narratives together, culminating in a breathtaking convergence at the party.

This definitive edition is meticulously edited by Stella McNichol and features an enlightening introduction and notes by Elaine Showalter, enhancing your understanding and appreciation of Woolf's artistry. Key highlights of this extraordinary book include:

  • Masterful Narrative Style: Experience Woolf's innovative stream-of-consciousness technique, blending time and perspective.
  • Rich Character Development: Delve into the complexities of human emotions and relationships through vividly crafted characters.
  • A Visual Delight: The beautifully designed clothbound cover adds an elegant touch to your collection.

Recognized as a cornerstone of modernist literature, Mrs Dalloway continues to resonate with readers, offering profound insights into the human experience. Whether you are a long-time devotee of Woolf or a newcomer, this edition promises an illuminating journey into her unparalleled literary world.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
