Oh dear, I can see we agree quite a lot here Michelle. Although I really rated the Hours I really could not enjoy The Inheritance of Loss at all! A bit of a worry as I was planning on reading Mrs Dalloway this year! After all your achievements this year Michelle, you should not be calling yourself dense! I really admire your recent postings and your statistics, not to mention your prize winning efforts over at novel challenge - I guess you are a number cruncher as well, a scientist maybe!! Happy New Reading Year Great review but …..

Stream-of-consciousness writing is very tedious and confusing. However, once I got into the rhythm of the writing, I began to enjoy it somewhat. I'm glad I read it before reading The Hours, as it helped to know what had happened in spite of Cunningham's constant reminders. Overall, I enjoyed both books and movies.Lovely review!

When I read Mrs Dalloway, I actually stopped halfway through, and started all over again. The second time around I read at a much slower pace, and really enjoyed the novel! I really like how Woolf can take an every day event (planning a party), but do it in such a way that you really delve into the character's thoughts and observations.

A long while. I still want to watch The Hours though.excellent review however; nice comparison and analysis.
