A review by krows_ink
A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf
reflective
3.0
well written and introspective. Although this piece is extremely outdated in my opinion. Furthermore, it’s also very obviously written from a white woman’s perspective.
While I cannot deny the impact money and time have on creation, and I do agree that having more of both would allow for more art to be written, I think that some of the better pieces I’ve written were written from poor women who did not have the education Woolf spoke of.
Anyways. I think this book was interesting, but I think a lot of these ideas should be contrasted to the writings of women of color and poor women.
