3. Mrs. Dalloway: (pg 5)"It was June. The King and Queen were at the palace….to give her party":
The castle that is being referred to is Buckingham Palace. Buckingham Palace is the King and Queen's official London residence. Woolf describes London following the war. The King and Queen are home and all is right with the world. People are hopeful. On this day in June anything is possible. Through Clarissa’s random stream of consciousness, Woolf shows the highly expectant emotional tone and the energetic setting of post war London.
