Mrs. Dalloway's London: An Overview
In the first part of Mrs. Dalloway, Clarissa Dalloway and Peter Walsh each take separate walks, departing from the Dalloway home and heading north along different paths. This site divides each character's journey into three stages:
Clarissa Dalloway’s Walk |
Peter Walsh’s Walk |
Stage 1: St. James’s Park |
Stage 1: Whitehall |
Stage 2: Piccadilly |
Stage 2: Trafalgar Square |
Stage 3: Bond St. |
Stage 3: Regent’s Park |
This site provides a separate page for each stage of Clarissa's and Peter's walks. Each stage is named after the part of London that dominates that scene in the novel. When you arrive at a new stage/place, you will see a photograph and a brief description of the area. You will also be able to open popup windows for a map, additional photographs, and the corresponding text of Mrs. Dalloway.
When you open windows with the text of Mrs. Dalloway, you will see certain words, names, or places in bold. A single click on these bold items will open a new window with further photos or information. Be sure to close any windows after you've used them.
