# Virginia Woolf

> She bent the novel inward, made it track thought itself — not what people said or did, but the flicker and flow underneath. That formal break, plus the essay arguing a woman needs money and a room to write, locked her into the canon and the arguments around it.

## Bio

Born in 1882 into a crowded, intellectual South Kensington household — her father Leslie Stephen, her sister the painter Vanessa Bell — Woolf was taught at home in classics and Victorian literature, then studied at King's College London. After her father's death in 1904 she moved to Bloomsbury, became a founding member of the group that took the district's name, and married Leonard Woolf in 1912. Together they started the Hogarth Press in 1917, which published her own work. She rose through the interwar years with Mrs Dalloway in 1925, To the Lighthouse in 1927, Orlando in 1928, and the feminist essay A Room of One's Own in 1929. By 1940 she and Leonard had settled in Sussex; she drowned herself in the River Ouse in March 1941. Her work was reclaimed by feminist critics in the 1970s and has since been translated into more than fifty languages.
