Woolf's intricate narrative unfolds in the bustling streets of post-World War I London, bringing readers into a world suffused with reflections, memories, and the inexorable flow of time.

The book chronicles a single day in June 1923, as Clarissa Dalloway, a high-society woman in London, prepares to host an evening party. This seemingly ordinary day, however, delves deep into the labyrinthine human mind, unwrapping the tapestry of life interwoven with ephemeral moments, unspoken yearnings, and existential contemplations.

Woolf’s revolutionary stream-of-consciousness narrative weaves through the internal and the external, crafting a world that is as vividly real as it is introspectively profound. This edition enhances your journey through the intertwining lives and thoughts of Woolf's unforgettable characters with meticulously crafted illustrations, breathing visual essence into the realms of unseen emotions and unspoken thoughts.

In addition to the enriched narrative experience, this edition also includes a concise summary, a detailed list of characters, and an engaging biography of Virginia Woolf, offering readers an insightful glance into the life and mind of the illustrious author.

    Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is a satirical novella by the English schoolmaster and clergyman Edwin Abbott Abbott. The story describes a two-dimensional world occupied by geometric figures, whereof women are simple line-segments, while men are polygons with various numbers of sides. Written pseudonymously by "A Square", the book used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions. This masterpiece of science (and mathematical) fiction is a delightfully unique and highly entertaining satire that has charmed readers for more than 100 years.
