Time, location, and especially thoughts are not specific to one character or individual. We, as were readers of Woolf's time, are immediately put on guard at the novel's malleable prose. Devoid almost entirely of plot or action, Virginia Woolf instead draws in her reader's gaze through exploring the interior of the human mind-specifically, that of Clarissa Dalloway.
