One day in the heads of Clarissa Dalloway, Septimus Warren Smith, and the people surrounding them. Woven together with inner monologues: the past and the present, some regret, some doubt, and the minute details of the every day that produce joy and distraction.
At part I felt lost in the monologues, lost track of narrator and/or if we were currently in the past or the present (blame the audio-book for making multitasking possible). But Woolf's melodic, very British, simple yet dazzling prose creates a tapestry of the complexities of human feelings and human relations, and you just go with the flow, get pulled into the life of characters that at the beginning may have seemed dull.
