Description:
Part of the Norton Library series
The Norton Library edition of A Room of One’s Own features Virginia Woolf’s original 1929 text. Dora Zhang crafts a thoughtful introduction and targeted notes that highlight the continued prevalence of the piece’s themes today and provide a solid foundation for readers to engage with Woolf’s rich, complex, and at times contradictory writing style.
The Norton Library is a growing collection of high-quality texts and translations—influential works of literature and philosophy—introduced and edited by leading scholars. Norton Library editions prepare readers for their first encounter with the works that they’ll re-read over a lifetime.
About the Author:
Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was the world-renowned author of Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, and The Waves, among other works.
About the Editor:
Dora Zhang is Associate Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of California, Berkeley. She is the author of Strange Likeness: Description and the Modernist Novel (University of Chicago Press, 2020), which studies the works of Henry James, Marcel Proust, and, centrally, Virginia Woolf in order to reinvigorate our understanding of the ubiquitous but undertheorized category of novelistic description. Her writing has also appeared in the Los Angeles Review of Books, Public Books, The Chronicle Review, and The Point.
