A Room of One's Own - diskuze

In this extraordinary essay, Virginia Woolf examines the limitations of womanhood in the early twentieth century. With the startling prose and poetic license of a novelist, she makes a bid for freedom, emphasising 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.This Macmillan Collector s Library edition features an afterword by the British art historian Frances Spalding. Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collector s Library is a series of beautiful gift editions of much loved classic titles. Macmillan Collector s Library are books to love and treasure.
