  • It has been called one of the greatest non-fiction books of all time.
    The Guardian called Virginia Woolf's "A Room of One's Own" "a landmark in feminist thought and a rhetorical masterpiece." According to a contemporary review in The Los Angeles Times (1929): "If you miss this book, which is profound and subtle and gently ironic and beautifully written, you will have missed an important reading experience." Another Look considers the work's legacy almost a century later. The Bloomsbury author's iconic book, an extended essay, is in public domain and widely available.
    Stanford’s Prof. Robert Pogue Harrison, an acclaimed author and director of Another Look, led the discussion, joined by the eminent novelist Tobias Wolff, founding director of Another Look and a National Medal of Arts winner. Harrison is also the host of the radio talk show and podcast series Entitled Opinions.
    The panel also included Constance Solari, a writing coach and the author of four novels, including 2012's Sophie's Fire: The Story of Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat. Maria Florence Massucco is a PhD candidate in Italian Studies at Stanford, specializing in the 20th century novel. 
    The "hybrid" event took place 7-9 p.m. (PST) on Tuesday, April 11, 2023, at Levinthal Hall, in the Stanford Humanities Center.
    Another Look is sponsored by Stanford Continuing Studies, the Stanford Humanities Center, and the Division of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages.
