A Room of One's Own
This is a work that explores female consciousness and feminist thought. European women have had a low status since ancient times. In Woolf's era, prejudice against women and inequality in the status of men and women were gradually weakening. At the same time, she insists that there is still a long way to go to achieve true equality between men and women. Based on this, she put forward her own opinion: "If a woman wants to write novels, she must have money and a room of her own."

Waves
"The Waves" is Woolf's work at the peak of her creative power and was published in 1931. This highly poetic, abstract, and stylized experimental work does not have a story in the strict sense, but is more like a musical work composed of nine movements: each introduction is an exquisite prose poem, using the ebb and flow of the sun and waves to correspond to the ups and downs of life; following each introduction are the momentary inner monologues of six highly formalized characters without surnam

A Room of One's Own
If girls want to be independent, they need financial support and a room of their own. ◆Life, for these men and women - I watched them shoulder to shoulder, running on the sidewalk - is equally hard, equally difficult, and a never-ending struggle. ◆Hate men? There's no need because they can't hurt me anymore. To please a man? It's not necessary either because I don't need anything from them. ◆You don't have to rush for success, you don't have to be sharp, you don't have to imitate others, just be

Go to the Lighthouse (Gomai Classic)
The novel "To the Lighthouse" runs through the whole book, describing the life experience of the Ramsay family and several guests before and after the First World War. In this novel with a very simple plot, Woolf uses a stream of consciousness writing technique to faithfully transform human emotional fluctuations into words, and explores how to find oneself and eternity in a chaotic, impermanent, and perishable life.
