About the Author
Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) was a pioneering English writer, essayist, and modernist thinker. A key figure in the literary world of the early 20th century, she is best known for her experimental narrative techniques and profound psychological insights.
Born into an intellectual family in London, Woolf was exposed to literature from an early age. She became one of the leading members of the Bloomsbury Group, an influential collective of writers, artists, and philosophers. Her works, including Mrs Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927), and Orlando (1928), broke traditional literary conventions by exploring stream-of-consciousness narration and shifting perspectives.
Woolf’s essays, particularly A Room of One’s Own (1929), remain vital feminist texts advocating for women's intellectual and creative independence. Her writing challenged societal norms, addressed mental health, and examined the fluidity of identity.
Despite her literary success, Woolf struggled with mental illness throughout her life. She tragically ended her life in 1941, but her influence endures, shaping modern literature and feminist thought.
