describe how their paths finally meet and how Clarissa responds to Septimus.

In the first few assignments concerning Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway I never mentioned the character of Septimus, a World War I vet who suffers from shell shock or what we call today PTSD. Most literary critics of Virginia Woolf see Clarissa and Septimus as complimentary characters reflecting each other. On the surface they are quite different: one is female and the other male; one is rich, of a higher social class while the other is poor; one is lucid and integrated into society and the other mentally unstable and a misfit; etc. Still, both characters are confused/confounded/perplexed by English society but for entirely different reasons. In the novel, Clarissa and Septimus never actually meet, but their paths do finally cross in the party scene. In a short essay (500 words minimum), please describe how their paths finally meet and how Clarissa responds to Septimus
