“Books do not get jealous if you read other books”- Anonymous
Reading book is both a custom and an aesthetic. It links us to human fate and predicament, of what happened in the Classical Antiquity to as much as those of the modern era, and whatever came between the two.

She pointed out that “there are no quotations in the entire text barring two three quotes wherein she actually quotes the person directly addressing someone and the entire narration is third person point of view. Mrs Dalloway is impressionable.” Namrata Choudhury, PG Sem1 student of English, explained the stream of
