Utopian Female Bliss, Mrs Dalloway and Barbie


Listen Later

In today's episode of Dagmara returns to continue our discussion of "Mrs Dalloway".


We draw on an intriguing comparison of Woolf's masterpiece and the iconic Barbie movie, uncovering unexpected connections between these seemingly disparate worlds.


At the center of the discussion, we explore the underlying exploration of male violence. We draw on the complex dynamics of Clarissa's relationships with Peter Walsh and Richard Dalloway, shedding light on the subtle but powerful critique of male domination, manipulation and the societal expectations surrounding marriage.


Lastly, we delve into how reality often differs from the idyllic deception of female solidarity and connection that is found in the Barbie narrative or unharmed relation between Clarissa and Sally.
