First she traces the origins of English women writing, the challenges the women faced and how those challenges affected their work. She also shows how restrictions on women in learning institutions and financial dependence affects the progress of women. Thus Woolf demonstrates that for a woman to write fiction, she would need a room of her own and a comfortable income.<br><br>It is fascinating how seamlessly Woolf managed to enlace fiction into her lectures, as she creates Shakespeare's sister to show the conditions women faced in the 17th century would have driven her to ruin even with as much talent and genius as her brother.<br><br>Unfortunately, even though almost 90 years since it was published, even with certain improvements being made towards equality of the sexes, this small but powerful book still remains relevant. Although women no longer require a letter from the Dean to access libraries (in most parts of the world, again a shame that it's not universal), certain male critics still foolishly claim women can't write, female characters are still mostly written in relation to the men they're connected with, there's still inequality in pay and wages, the list of the discriminatory goes on.<br><br>This brilliant quote is among my favourites :<br><i>"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"</i> <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss10.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_273361090" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_273361090"> </span> </span><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_273361090" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_273361090" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_273361090"> </span></span></span> <span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/raulbimenyimana" target="_top">raulbimenyimana</a> | Oct 13, 2024 | <a href="/review/273361090"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> </div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_267673164" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/5199" data-workid="5199" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0156787334.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0156787334.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0156787334.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>This is a short collection of essays and stories with the title essay produced after Ms Woolfe was asked to present on talk on ‘something’ about women and writing.<br><br>What she produced was her musing about why there have been so few top flight women writers. At the time she wrote this (published 1929) , women had only been allowed to have money or property in their own name for a few years. Her conclusion then was that women running a busy household need two things – a place where she can be completely alone from the cares of the household and money of her own so she can be somewhat independent. <br><br>She pointed out that a married man could work all day but has his needs provided and his evenings could be his own. In addition, she points out that men had more access to quality education and that most acclaimed male writers had fine educations not available to women.<br><br>Although there are many more opportunities today for women to have both – as is seen by the number of women writers, there is still a disparity between the sexes and if the woman has children and is also working outside the home, her time is even more divided. If you are driven to write, you will write.<br><br>In the audiobook that I listened to, there are several other short stories shining a light on women and how they fit into the world. <br><br>Recommended - one of those classics I had resisted reading until my seventh decade. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss8.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_267673164" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_267673164"> </span> </span><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_267673164" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_267673164" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_267673164"> </span></span></span> <span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/streamsong" target="_top">streamsong</a> | Sep 14, 2024 | <a href="/review/267673164"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> </div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_270955239" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/5199" data-workid="5199" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0156787334.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0156787334.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0156787334.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>I think I read this before, but the memory is gone. A very good catalog of why we do not have a continuous history of women, before the 19th century. Prejudice, discounting, work and 'place' all feature. Her pattern in the book is to pose questions, one at a time, to figure out formally what we all can gather from our own lives. A modest income and a room of one's own, she concludes, is the necessary condition.<br><br>It makes me think of Tillie Olsen, however, and her short story "I Stand Here Ironing" (right title?). She struggled with all the time eating problems of her life and responsibilities, and still got it down in text. And so often about those very struggles. Sigh.
