“A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.”
I always have a somewhat complicated relationship with Vírgínia Woolf. Her style, stream of consciousness, is a literary style that I struggle with. But I was really surprised when I actually could read this book the first time I tried it (Mrs Dalloway took me three times). And I really liked it!
It is supposed to be a book about women writing fiction, but it goes much further. It talks about the role of women in fiction and in society. It isn't a book about feminism, but it is a feminist book, that I strongly recommend. It's one of those books that I think everyone should read at least one time.

I think I would've enjoyed this essay more if we weren't forced to read and answer questions on it in AP Lang.
