Adeline Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was an English writer and literary critic, the leading figure of the modernist literature of the first half of the twentieth century.

In a poetic form of soliloquies, it tells the stories of six children, Bernard, Susan, Rhoda, Neville, Jinny, and Louis, from infancy to...

A Room of One's Own (1929) has become a classic feminist essay and perhaps Virginia Woolf's best known work; The Voyage Out (1915) is highly significant as her first novel. Both focus on the place of women within the power structures of modern society. The essay lays bare the woman artist's struggle for a voice, since throughout history she has been denied the social and economic independence assumed by men. Woolf's prescription is clear: if a woman is to find creative expression equal to a...

Tracing the lives of a group of friends, The Waves follows their development from childhood to middle age. While social events, individual achievements and disappointments form its narrative, the novel is most remarkable for the rich poetic language that expresses the inner life of its characters: their aspirations, their triumphs and regrets, their awareness of unity and isolation, and their questioning of the meaning of life itself. Perhaps more than any of Woolf's novels, The Waves conveys...

To the Lighthouse is at once a vivid impressionistic depiction of a family, the Ramseys, whose annual summer holiday in Scotland falls under the shadow of war, and a meditation on marriage, on parenthood and childhood, on grief, tyranny and bitterness. The novel's use of stream of consciousness, reminiscence and shifting perspectives gives it an intimate, poetic essence, and at the time of publication in 1927 it represented an utter rejection of all that had gone before.

Virginia Woolfi (1882–1941) peetakse üheks XX sajandi tähtsamaks modernistlikuks autoriks. Kirjandusloos tuntakse teda eelkõige romaanikunsti uuendajana, kuid Woolfi mänglev ja julge kirjutuslaad avaldub ka novellides ja arvustustes, samuti esseedes, millest suurem osa autori eluajal ilmuda ei jõudnudki. <br/> „Oma tuba“ sündis kahest ettekandest teemal „Naised ja ilukirjandus“, mille Woolf pidas aastal 1929, kuid mis mõjuvad värskelt ja aktuaalselt ka täna. Essee illustreerib nii Woolfi...
