The Hours / Mrs. Dalloway

The interconnected stories create a layered narrative, but I wonder if this complexity was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

Their internal battles felt so real and raw, making me reflect on how mental health is portrayed in literature today. Did the book resonate differently for others?

The way Woolf's story intertwines with the others feels so deliberate. I'm curious whether the author was inspired by her writing or her personal life.
