Descripción
In 1928, Virginia Woolf was asked to give a series of lectures on the topic of women and the novel. Far from any dogmatism or presumption, she approached the question from a realistic, courageous, and very particular point of view. One question: what do women need to write good novels? One answer: economic and personal independence, that is, A Room of One's Own. It had only been nine years since women were granted the right to vote, and there was still a long way to go.
Many psychological and social implications are involved in this essay of such intelligent exposition; fascinating historical nuances that make the topic of the female condition and the alienation of women in society not lose an iota of relevance.
Starting from a direct approach and using sharp, ironic, and incisive language, Virginia Woolf narrates a captivating parable to illustrate her opinions. A compelling read, the contribution of an exquisite storyteller to the always controversial issue of feminism from an inevitably literary perspective.
