In the novel what will Mrs Dalloway buy herself?

In Virginia Woolf's novel "Mrs. Dalloway," the protagonist, Clarissa Dalloway, decides to buy herself a bouquet of flowers.

This seemingly simple act holds symbolic weight in the novel. The flowers represent Clarissa's desire for beauty and connection in a world that often feels chaotic and impersonal. They also symbolize her own fleeting existence, like the flowers themselves, beautiful but ephemeral.
