Abstract (summary)
In this essay the importance and effect of the everyday moment in Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway and Michael Cunningham's The Hours is discussed. Whether the everyday moment is shown as baking a cake, taking a sip of coffee or making hats, each moment has its own significant impact on the characters. The impact arouses both powerful feelings and illuminating possibilities in the lives of the characters, thus demonstrating that the ordinary moments in life often hold the greatest significance.
