A Woman's Struggle

My favorite aspect of Virginia Wolf's novel called "A Room of One's Own" is the description of how difficult it was for a woman to actually write. She wasn't allowed to walk in certain places like the library and even some places outdoors. How could she get a feel for life if it was so limited? I thought it was really interesting that she also discussed the new ability for women to vote. For her to be unexcited about the new privilege says a lot. Even if women have the right to vote there are so many other aspects of a woman's life that will remain limited.
