🔽 Intro and review summary 🔽
✔ A "remake" of Mrs. Dalloway
✔ Unchanging female struggles
★★★★☆ It's about 3 women, who want something else than what they have. Don't we all. I really should have read Mrs. Dalloway first.
🔽 Book review and notes 🔽
I knew I had to read "Mrs. Dalloway" by Virginia Woolf first, but went ahead, which is my fault, I'm sure it'd have been much better if I knew the story first.
It's about 3 women, who want something else than what they have.
It is normal to be not normal, to want to run away, turn away.
But as it shows in the case of Mrs Brown, it affects others, and the stories get tangled up.
Some hours are so significant in life. Small actions made in these hours will haunt you.
