If Shakespeare had a sister as talented as he, would she have not the same opportunities to develop her skills ? Constructed around Woolf's idea that to write fiction a woman must have money and a room of her own, this revolutionary work depicts a woman's predicaments as she struggles deep within for some place of her own where she can work without restrictions. It brings forth the differences, biases and conventional attitudes that have caused immense suffering to women across the centuries. A Room of One's Own is a major work of the twentieth-century feminist literature.
