A Short Analysis of Virginia Woolf’s ‘Monday or Tuesday’ Everyday Words Taken from Famous If you found reading ‘Monday or Tuesday’ a disorienting experience, don’t worry you’re meant to. One of the things Woolf is exploring through this short story is disorientation, distraction, the difficult and perhaps foolish quest for truthful and honest representation of the world through one’s writing. Even the title hints at this confusion and uncertainty: to the narrator, and perhaps to Woolf herself, today could be either Monday or Tuesday. Perhaps it doesn’t matter. The everyday occurrences her short story describes (‘everyday’ being a key word for Woolf; again, the title ‘Monday or Tuesday’ comes into play here) are at once distractions from her greater goal of trying to write ‘the truth’ and the very embodiment of that truth.
