A escritora pontua em que medida a posição que a mulher ocupa na sociedade acarreta dificuldades para a expressão livre de seu pensamento, para que essa expressão seja transformada em uma escrita sem sujeição e, finalmente, para que essa escrita seja recebida com consideração, em vez da indiferença comumente reservada à escrita feminina na época.

Geleneksel roman anlayışını yıkarak dünya edebiyatının en sıra dışı yazarlarından biri olan Virginia Woolf, Dalgalar'la şiir ve düzyazıyı benzersiz bir şekilde bir araya getiriyor ve bilinç akışı tekniğinin en önemli eserlerinden birini ortaya koyuyor. Dalgalar'da, üç erkek ve üç kadının çocukluklarından yaşlılık dönemlerine kadar tüm hayatları bilinç akışı tekniğiyle anlatılıyor. Dış dünyaya ise sadece karakterlerinin onu algılayışları üzerinden yer veriliyor. Woolf, ortak bir yazgıyla yer yer birbirinden uzaklaşan ama sıklıkla kesişen hayatları anlatıyor.

Hätte Shakespeare eine Schwester gehabt, ebenso begabt wie er, wie wäre es ihr ergangen? Welche Widerstände mussten Jane Austen oder die Brontë-Schwestern überwinden? Im Oktober 1928 hielt Virginia Woolf zwei Vorträge am ersten Frauencollege Großbritanniens an der Universität Cambridge. Ob ihnen bewusst sei, fragte Woolf ihre Zuhörerinnen, dass sie vielleicht "das am häufigsten abgehandelte Tier des Universums" seien? Schließlich wurde Literatur über Frauen fast ausschließlich von Männern verfasst. Aus Woolfs Vorträgen entstand der Essay Ein Zimmer für sich allein, den sie ein Jahr später veröffentlichte.

"A Room of One's Own" began life as a pair of lectures delivered by Virginia Woolf in October 1928 at Newnham College and Girton College, women's colleges at the University of Cambridge and was published as a stand-alone book in 1929. In this brilliant examination of literature, history and gender discrimination, Woolf posits that the dearth of female writers in literature did not result from a lack of talent; it was the lack of opportunity.
