Krátky popis
As Mabel Waring takes off her cloak and steps into the drawing room
of Clarissa Dalloway, she immediately realizes that something is
not right: her pale-yellow silk dress, which she has had specially
made for the occasion, is clearly old-fashioned, dowdy and out of
place. Everyone seems to be looking at her in dismay or mocking her
appearance. Crushed at once by her insecurity, Mabel is pervaded by
a sense of self-loathing, and feels utter revulsion for the social
world she has tried so hard to impress.Written in 1924 and perhaps
intended for inclusion in Mrs Dalloway, a book Woolf was working on
at the time, The New Dress is here accompanied by most of the short
stories she published in her lifetime and six other posthumously
published narratives that share the milieu and some of the
characters of her celebrated novel. Together, they reveal their
author as one of the finest practitioners in the field of short
fiction.
