We know the novel is set on a Wednesday in June of 1923, toward the middle of the month.<br>
<br>
June 21, 1923 was a Thursday.<br>
<br>
There were no solar eclipses in June in 1923.<br>
<br>
The other clue to the exact date would be the cricket scores, but David Bradshaw has shown that they are notional and do not correspond to the scores on a particular date.<br>
<br>
There is no ClarissaDay as there is a Bloomsday.<br>

It has been my considered opinion that Mrs Dalloway takes place on the Summer Solstice which, according to Whitaker's Almanac, occurs on June 21 in 1923."Everything had come to a standstill." Other opinions? Molly<br>
