Author

Virginia Woolf

A crucial part of our intellectual education. She theorised and embodied the need for women to write, and led a truly unconventional life, challenging societal norms around love and relationships. She had an open marriage! She had long held sexual and romantic friendship with another woman! At the same time, she upheld many troubling views from her social class. She was in many ways a woman of her time. We find her literary talent and emotional depth undeniable.
