I'm reading Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf. The book's absolutely intriguing. Like the childhood memories of Peter Walsh of Clarissa talking to someone at dinner after they had a sorta quarrel. The way he looked up and saw them and said,' She's going to marry him.' Him, Dalloway, not Walsh. The absolute certainty! Never could have come clearer to me. Twas only recently that I heard about how intimidating this book was supposed to be. I didn't know it when I picked it up. I donh't find it hard. At all, actually. Well..I dunno. Books like 'Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf' exist for a reason, I guess. What a lark! What a plunge!
This Virginia Woolf is gorgeous. I think I've acquired something of her style after watching 'The Hours'. I could watch the movie again and again just to hear the music..

This is actually Nicole Kidman in the picture.
Yes, i know, anonymous blogger. Hence why "This virginia woolf". I mean, how many virginia woolfs are there that i need to specify "This". But I'm sure there are lotsa actresses who have played her.
