A Room Of One’s Own

“A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction”

Considered as one of the classics of twentieth century feminist literature, a Room of One’s Own is a book-length essay written by Virginia Woolf. Delineating the basic requirements of a woman to write, the author incorporates detailed revelations of the various power structures that stop a woman to excel and elucidate her creative capabilities.

Illustrating the importance of women’s literacy through a fictional character named Judith Shakespeare, a Room of One’s Own encourages women to rise above patriarchal monotony and set a unique literary tradition of their own!
