A Room of One's Own is an extended essay by Virginia Woolf. First published on 24 October 1929, the essay was based on a series of lectures she delivered at Newnham College and Girton College, two women's colleges at Cambridge University in October 1928. While this extended essay employs a fictional narrator and narrative to explore women as writers of and characters in fiction, the manuscript for the delivery of the series of lectures, titled Women and Fiction, and hence the essay, are considered non-fiction. The essay is seen as a feminist text, and is noted for its argument for both a literal and figural space for women writers within a literary tradition dominated by patriarchy.
