Ed. Phelan and Rabinowitz, pub. in 2005. The chapter addresses the "increased auditory awareness" that results from "urban soundscapes" in Woolf's short fiction and novels; Cuddy-Keane frames her discussion as part of her larger project "to promote the development of a critical methodology and a vocabulary for analyzing narrative representations of sound" (382). Although the essay contains only one page directly addressing <i>MD</i>, it's very useful for thinking about sound in Woolf's urban landscapes.</div><div><br></div><div>Cuddy-Keane's chapter also engages a very fine essay by Rishona Zimring about sound in <i>The Years:</i> "Suggestions of Other Worlds: The Art of Sound in <i>The Years</i>." <i>Woolf Studies Annual </i>8 (2002). </div><div><br></div><div>Also see Angela Frattarola's "Developing an Ear for the Modernist Novel: Virginia Woolf, Dorothy Richardson, and James Joyce" in the <i>Journal of Modern Literature</i> 33.1 (2009).
