"Virginia Woolf"


A room of one owns written by Virginia Wolf is a very interesting piece of writing. Moreover, it depicted very well the women’s situation in those days. However, there is a point in which one I do not agree with her, and it is the fact that she wrote from the point of view of a women who belonged to the upper class. Probably my comment is not understandable at all but I will clear it. I think that she could take the fact that women were delegated to the housechores and to take care of children and family before to ask why women did not write or were not dedicated to other fields. probably she had all the time that she wanted because she had not anything to do. But women’s situation were the opposite to hers. Their future were not in writing and by the time the society wanted them as the houskeeper, they were not aware of other things. Their awareness were focus on the house. People speak so easily about others. Neverthenless, they say what they see and to live and see are quite different. Even though she was very good depicting the women’s problem, I believe she should go beyond the comments and to live like a women from a low or a working class.
