Mrs. Dalloway in Bond Street: While shopping for gloves, Mrs. Dalloway reflects on life, encounters, and memories, immersed in the pulse of London. Every mundane detail stirs deep recollections.

The Lady in the Looking Glass: Isabella's life, reflected in a mirror, appears fascinating and mysterious. But as her image sharpens, the truth about her inner emptiness comes to light.
