This book is an intellectual and financial bargain not often available otherwise. Review: A Beautifully Written Book - The language creates a feeling of actually being where the characters are--walking, musing on their pasts, critically assessing the behavior or appearance of others--I almost felt that I too could inhale the air they breathed. Some of the essays by other authors had interesting interpretations and info too. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,964,021 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #7,124 in Literary Criticism & Theory #27,579 in Classic Literature & Fiction #49,547 in Literary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (37) | | Dimensions | 7.9 x 5.2 x 1 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | Grade level | 9 and up | | ISBN-10 | 0156030152 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0156030151 | | Item Weight | 13.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 378 pages | | Publication date | November 1, 2004 | | Publisher | Mariner Books | | Reading age | 14 years and up | ## Images ![The Mrs. Dalloway Reader: The Virginia Woolf Library Authorized Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HG4V65JpL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All you need *by T***E on January 22, 2021* This book contains not only Woolf's novel but, for the price of a hard back version of the novel, half of this book also includes the basic scholarship that not only illuminates Mrs. Dalloway as a novel but gets one well prepared (and eager) for the rest of Virginia Woolf, as a novelist, critic and person. This book is an intellectual and financial bargain not often available otherwise. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Beautifully Written Book *by B***3 on June 16, 2020* The language creates a feeling of actually being where the characters are--walking, musing on their pasts, critically assessing the behavior or appearance of others--I almost felt that I too could inhale the air they breathed. Some of the essays by other authors had interesting interpretations and info too. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Wonderful Resource for Students of Woolf *by C***. on October 9, 2011* Mrs. Dalloway, easily my favorite of Woolf's many works (both fiction and non), displays new vitality in this collection that provides additional background about the novel, early versions and stories featuring related characters, and other authors commenting on the effect of the novel on their lives (both professional and personal). The additional resources are a bit inconsistent in quality (most disappointing is Michael Cunningham's contribution - barely two pages - despite the fact that his novel The Hours, in addition to being a great work of literary fiction on its own, reimagined Mrs. Dalloway and introduced the original work to a new generation of readers). In addition to being a pleasure to read and an intriguing exploration of madness versus civility, it challenged the idea of the type of scope and action that "should" be the concern of the "serious" novel. If you've read and enjoyed Cunningham's The Hours but haven't yet picked up Mrs. Dalloway, then you are missing out on part of the experience of reading really great literature: finding connections to other works, other voices, other worlds. What is affecting in The Hours is made even more powerful by knowing the work that helped bring it into being. This collection is especially useful for classes working with Mrs. Dalloway; however, as of writing this review, the book is currently "out of stock" indefinitely with no scheduled reprint date (which is bookstore lingo for being one step away from officially out of print). I hope that this collection will be treated to a second edition (perhaps with expanded commentary - c'mon Cunningham, I know you can do better than that!) or at least a new printing to bring this classic piece of literature to life for even more students. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Mrs. Dalloway Reader: The Virginia Woolf Library Authorized Edition - Pride and Prejudice (Penguin Classics) - Jane Eyre (Bantam Classics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/11857168-the-mrs-dalloway-reader-the-virginia-woolf-library-authorized-edition](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/11857168-the-mrs-dalloway-reader-the-virginia-woolf-library-authorized-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
