Why did I pick these books (7 of 10)?

Mrs. Dalloway, another books that I bought while enthused by another - Michael Cunningham's The Hours, and by the stunning movie with beautiful Julianne Moore and unsurpassed Meryl Streep, and Nicole Kidman walking into the river so impressively.
But how long has Mrs. Dalloway been waiting for my patience to go shopping for flowers with her, when I haven't given flowers to my wife in months?
