Abstract

Presents a literary criticism of the works of Virginia Woolf. Her endeavor to render the inner working of the mind; Suggestions that her work is poetic; Author's assertion that Woolf's modernism is not purely concerned with recording the subjective mind or heightened experience, but is deeply invested, stylistically and ideologically, in representing the ordinary; Lack of attention from the critics about her commitment to ordinary experience.
