When i was a kid, i used this book to show my mother that i needed a room & privacy. I asked her to buy it, but she couldn't find it. I was trying to give her some signs that I'm mentally sick.. it came out as autism..
I read this book a long time back, but perhaps I’m ether an auditory learner, but the reader does such a great job here. I’m getting so much more out of it now. A great listen. Many “points to ponder”.
I’m reading this in Uni right now and the puddle of text just doesn’t have what the speaker has, maybe it’s my expectation of the “British” accent. Or the spaces in between the lady’s voice, but it plays out so much better in the mind.
I watched Vita and Virginia and I fell in love with the latter. I started by reading her letters to and from Vita and now I am reading her books. Such a marvellous writer.
I’m so happy I treated myself to listening to this in my free time. WOW, this is just exactly what I needed for inspiration for the characters in my novel (especially the females) I’m working on!
Female birds? Female horses? Female dogs… Bitches? If your characters are human then they are women, not females. Consider why you called them that because if you don’t it will likely get in the way of writing them, well, as full complex humans.
To think that some things which Woolf expected are now a reality.... Goes to show how much of an intellectual genius was she and the university which once denied her entry certainly now preserves her works in high esteem. She must be smiling from above at the progress people of her sex have made.
43:00 This is one idea that I would like to refer men of the "AltRight" to when they claim that the lack of female engineers, scientists, and so on throughout history should be attributed to some inherent disparity between the sexes in intellect or creativity. The only pertinent disparities were in access, and as Woolf describes, motivation.
That's interesting because, as education studies have shown, specifically the world famous PISA tests, girls do not perform below boys in math and sciences; they both perform about the same. They do however perform ABOVE boys in humanistic classes like literature (English), history and so on. I personally believe this also accounts for some of the disparity, and how soft sciences on the other hand are vastly overrepresented by women (not that it is a bad thing).
It wouldn't make a difference to those who are already convinced of their altright position. It's an obvious understanding to anyone with any knowledge of society. They are not open to knowledge and ideas, they only seek to confirm their anger, arrogance and self-loathing. If you get smoothing considered back, anything other than vitriol, let us know!
English is not my first language and to listen while reading helps me to fokus especially when it's a (I call it) "high literature". It's exciting, it is mostly word by word the same, except one (so far) at 3:05:35 she reads "very ancient lady crossing the road", but in my book she writes "street". I'm curious, how is it in your book ?
You capture Mary very well, thank you. BTW, £500 in 2024 money is £40k. (It is not possible to be a novelist on benefits, or the minimum wage, even if one can shut the door.)
A thought, as if a fish which "swayed, minute after minute...among the reflections of the weeds", allowed to be carried through the lifting and sinking waves and pushed by a sudden splash outside the water. This thought, laid on a grass looks as insignificant and small as an immature fish which "a good fisherman puts back into the water so that it may grow fatter and be one day worth cooking and eating". "Why if it was an illusion not Praise the Catastrophe whatever it was that destroyed elevation and put true in its place" If Tennyson and Rossetti described illusion, why not describe the/paradise the Catastrophe, the truth. "One cannot sleep well, love well, think we'll, if one has not dined well."
All the birds are up and out searching for heat and food in the winter sun. Foraging for a worm like Mrs Dalloway for a word. Once found they can both survive the future frost publish a novel or nest in a library of may hedgerows.

Thank you!
Beautifully read. So poignant whilst being funny, witty and charming, all at the same time. What a formidable intellect she was. Thank you.
This is the original book audio ??
Appreciate it
Thanks.
This is so much easier to understand and focus on when listening and reading at the same time, thanks.
Scary that it is still relevant. Lovely read, thank you.

be sure to read orlando. it's a lot of fun
@@barbaraschumacher3861 I read Vita's biography. Stunning. I'm fascinated with both these women.
Yes, beautifully read, and what an eye-opener this book is by a genius of a woman.

A superb reading and an astounding essay. This is a cure for writer's block that I will revisit often
Wonderfully thought provoking essay that was perfect listening for a 4-hour drive! Now I’m wondering how I missed reading Virginia Woolf in school?
Shout out to all the covid lockdown listeners!
Yesssss
almost a year later ! still a lockdown listener
We're still out here, with monkey pox coming up fast...
😅😅😅😅😊😅😅😅😊😅.
🤣🤣🤣
Majestic writer my Queen Virginia Woolf is... And what brilliant eloquence the orator has shown. Best version of audiobook ever!!
Thank you for uploading, 1:32:56 - Shakespeare's sister chapter starts
This. This is why im here.
youre a god
Have read the book a few years ago, but it’s great to hear it read out aloud
Big thank you. Silly me: I thought I didn't need to read this book yet again--no one tells it as richly as Virginia Woolf.
The reader brings this wonderful essay to life
To think that some things which Woolf expected are now a reality.... Goes to show how much of an intellectual genius was she and the university which once denied her entry certainly now preserves her works in high esteem. She must be smiling from above at the progress people of her sex have made.
My favorite English writer❤❤❤
