Kitap Tanıtımı Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind Based on a lecture given at Cambridge and first published in 1929, A Room of Ones Own interweaves Woolfs personal experience as a female writer with themes ranging from Austen and Brontë to Shakespeares gifted (and imaginary) sister. Three Guineas, Woolfs most impassioned polemic, came almost a decade later and broke new ground by challenging the very notions of war and masculinity. This volume combines two inspirational, witty and urbane essays from one of literatures pre-eminent voices; collectively they constitute a brilliant and lucid attack on sexual inequality.
