A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf

reflective slow-paced

4.0

The ponderings of a feminist women. The realities of what it means to be a women during the late 19th and 20th centuries. The necessity of economic wellbeing in order to thrive (not just survive); its impact on women. Woolf explores a feminist dilemma that still exists today: career or family. She calls it the Great Sacrifice. Women are invaluable family-builders, yet can also add so much to creative and expressive career fields by providing another perspective. Recounts all the impacts of women on her contemporary society, the importance of different perspective, the necessity of a feminine voice. Recognizes the limitations of women in her current society and how it has affect women in general. Great voice.
