Virginia Woolf: A Room of One´s Own - gebunden

Produktmerkmale

In this extraordinary essay, Virginia Woolf examines the limitations of womanhood in the early twentieth century. With the startling prose and poetic licence of a novelist, she makes a bid for freedom, emphasizing that the lack of an independent income, and the titular ´room of one´s own´, prevents most women from reaching their full literary potential.

As relevant in its insight and indignation today as it was when first delivered in those hallowed lecture theatres, A Room of One´s Own remains both a beautiful work of literature and an incisive analysis of women and their place in the world.
