[Vwoolf] Mrs. Dallow-day?

[Anne Fernald]

It *is* a beautiful idea and I'd be 100% in favor of finding a way to
celebrate a Dallow-Day--we dream of it every June, don't we?

Even so, I find myself unable to resist the pedantic point that there is no
possible way to date which Wednesday in June the novel is set on. Woolf
actively resisted the possibility of such dating as David Bradshaw's work
and the work of others has conclusively shown.

Sorry! I LOVE a party, but I value accuracy, too.

Cheers,

Anne
