A Room of Ones Own (1929) has become a classic feminist essay & perhaps Virginia Woolfs 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 artists struggle for a voice since throughout history she has been denied the social & economic independence assumed by men. Woolfs prescription is clear: if a woman is to find creative expression equal to a mans she must have an independent income & a room of her own.

The novel explores these issues more personally through the character of Rachel Vinrace a young woman whose voyage out to South America opens up powerful encounters with her fellow-travellers men & women. As she begins to understand her place in the world she finds the happiness of love but also sees its brute power. Woolf has a sharp eye for the comedy of English manners in a foreign milieu; but the final undertow of the novel is tragic as in some of her finest writing she calls up the essential isolation of the human spirit. ...
