[Vwoolf] Clarissa overreacts somewhat

[Stuart N. Clarke]

“La signora Dalloway”, transl. Alessandra Scalero (1946), reprinted 1989, p. 42

“She and Sally fell a little behind. Then came the most exquisite moment of her whole life passing a stone urn with flowers in it. Sally stopped; picked a flower; lifted it to her lips and kissed it. The whole world might have turned upside down! The others disappeared; there she was alone with Sally. [continues:] And she felt that she had been given a present, wrapped up, and told just to keep it, not to look at it--a diamond, something infinitely precious, wrapped up, which, as they walked (up and down, up and down), she uncovered, or the radiance burnt through, the revelation, the religious feeling!]”
