Product Details

"Joanna Kavenna, a brilliant author still in the thick of her career, introduces this compact yet mighty collection with a bang, leaving us no choice but to step back and appreciate a new refraction of light from this timeless philosophy: 'We all seek a room of our own, and yet, we fail: our habitation is never permanent. Yet, writers live in the world of the imagination, and this makes one room an everywhere, as the English poet John Donne wrote.'"

--Linda

________________

Questions of identity and individual experience are addressed by Virgina Woolf in this superb collection.

The Notting Hill Editions Classic Collection series brings together the great essayists of the past, introduced by contemporary writers. Essays on the Self is a surprising collection spanning twenty-one years of Virginia Woolf's life, from the ages of thirty-seven to fifty-eight, the year before her suicide. The question of the self is central, in some way, to every essay in this book. Whether she is discussing the rights of women, the revolutions of modernity, social inequality, or the future of the novel, Woolf acknowledges that a writer's task is to find a unique self through which to view the world. The thirteen essays are introduced by the novelist Joanna Kavenna.
