About the book

Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own is an extended essay examining the relationship between women, literature and economic independence. Woolf argues that a woman requires both financial freedom and private space in order to write, while reflecting on the historical barriers that prevented women from participating fully in literary life. Insightful and elegantly written, the work became a foundational text in feminist literary criticism.
