Originally published in 1925, \u003ci\u003eMrs. Dalloway \u003c\/i\u003eis Woolf's first complete rendering of what she described as the \"luminous envelope\" of consciousness: a dazzling display of the mind's inside as it plays over the brilliant surface and darker depths of reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition uses the text of the original British publication of \u003ci\u003eMrs. Dalloway\u003c\/i\u003e, which includes changes Woolf made that never appeared in the first or subsequent American editions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVirginia Woolf was born in London in 1882, the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen, first editor of \u003ci\u003eThe Dictionary of National Biography\u003c\/i\u003e.
