A study of two literary texts: Virginia woolf's Mrs. Dalloway (1925) and Michael Cunningham's The hour (1999)

Exploring a text and discovering different layers of its meaning is a valuable experience that sharpens literary sensitiveness. The more we read, the more we know how to read. The semantic richness locked in a graphical word from which it cannot be separated can always be renewed, and literature is a living substance that adapts to the ever changing human thoughts and beliefs. Even a text that has already been written may be understood in a different way according to when it is read.
