Character or Author?


“Right now she is reading Virginia Woolf, all of Virginia Woolf, book by book” (42).

Virginia Woolf is the author of several well known critical literary works, with Mrs. Dalloway and A Room of One’s Own, among them. Woolf was the leading author to bring the new style of writing stream of consciousness into popularity during her time. Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway is the novel that inspired Cunningham’s The Hours. Characters from Mrs. Dalloway are recreated in The Hours with slight differences, but much of the basic plot remains the same.
