Read excerpt 1 from Mrs. Dalloway, and then answer the following question.

While reading the excerpt, you might have noticed that Woolf often uses strings of multiple (and often disparate) phrases separated by commas or semicolons. Because they do not contain a main clause or even a verb, these lines are not sentences.

What is the specific effect of this technique in the lines quoted below? What effects does this technique create in the work in general? Does the technique make the description in the text seem more natural, or does it make the description seem contrived? (To answer this question, consider what the author is describing.) Develop an argument to support your position.

In people’s eyes, in the swing, tramp, and trudge; in the bellow and the uproar; the carriages, motor cars, omnibuses, vans, sandwich men shuffling and swinging; brass bands; barrel organs; in the triumph and the jingle and the strange high singing of some aeroplane overhead was what she loved; life; London; this moment of June.
