About

Virginia Woolf, born in 1882, is a seminal figure in literary history, recognized for her contributions as a feminist and a modernist. As a great novelist and essayist, her works explore the interplay between individual lives and the broader societal and historical forces, with a special focus on women's experiences. Her notable novels include 'The Voyage Out,' 'Mrs Dalloway,' 'Orlando,' and 'The Waves,' among others. Woolf also authored influential feminist texts such as 'A Room of One's Own' and 'Three Guineas.' With her husband Leonard Woolf, she co-founded the Hogarth Press in 1917, which published significant works by T.S. Eliot, E.M. Forster, and Katherine Mansfield. Woolf's life was marked by personal struggles, and she tragically ended her life in 1941.
