My own room

In his famous Essay, Virginia Wolf claims: the main thing that was missing women for creativity is their own room to retire, and minimal income, so as not to starve. None of her great predecessors could afford such elementary things. Jane Austin wrote in the dining room, hiding drafts under the napkins, and until the 20th century the female novel had practically no tradition. In this essay, however, Wolfe is not going to abandon the beauty and accuracy of his syllable inherent in its artistic prose.
The charm of “its room” is that it serves as an example of calm mind, which, as Wolfe insists, is the determining quality of all great artists. Its transparent and elegant essays are devoted not only to the necessary material conditions of writing, but also by the creator’s self -preservation.
For the first time, this essay was published in 1929. From that time, much has changed, at least formally, but the essence of creativity has remained the same, as well as the need to defend its space - not only for writing, but also for life in a broad sense
