Beth's party : a short story inspired by the works of Virginia Woolf : an honors thesis (HONRS 499)

Abstract

This short store, entitled �Beth�s Party,� is written in the stream-of-consciousness style of Virginia Woolf�s Mrs. Dalloway, and explores several of Woolf�s major literary themes, such as feminism and gender roles, death and grief, sexuality and love, and sanity and mental health, in a modern context. It is the culmination of a semester-long intensive study of Virginia Woolf and her contributions to modernism at the Virginia B. Ball Center for Creative Inquiry.
