Dear Anne & fellow Woolfians ~
While it isn't especially new, Christine Froula's *VW & the Bloomsbury
Avant-Garde *was recently useful to me for teaching *Mrs. D. *in a Great
War lit class. I used excerpts of Chapter 4, "*Mrs. Dalloway*'s Postwar
Elegy: Women, War, and the Art of Mourning" to help the class (of art
students--no English majors) think into the elegiac aspects of the novel.
A number of students expressed a wish that we had read the whole chapter.
Best wishes,
Jennie-Rebecca Falcetta
