A WRITER'S DIARY by Virginia Woolf is a compelling collection of the author's diary entries spanning from 1918 to 1941. Written in a stream-of-consciousness style, the book captures Woolf's inner thoughts, musings, and struggles as a writer, providing a rare glimpse into her creative process and personal life. The entries discuss her opinions on literature, reflections on her own work, and intimate details of her daily routines. The literary context of the book showcases Woolf's unique perspective on the role of the writer in society, highlighting her experimentation with narrative form and her exploration of female subjectivity. Woolf's exquisite prose and keen observations make A WRITER'S DIARY a must-read for fans of modernist literature and aspiring writers alike. Virginia Woolf's own experiences as a novelist, essayist, and feminist thinker undoubtedly informed the depth and complexity of this insightful work, making it a valuable resource for understanding her artistic vision and legacy. I highly recommend A WRITER'S DIARY to anyone interested in delving into the mind of one of the most influential writers of the 20th century.

(Adeline) Virginia Woolf was an English novelist and essayist regarded as one of the foremost modernist literary figures of the twentieth century. During the interwar period, Woolf was a significant figure in London literary society and a member of the Bloomsbury Group. Her most famous works include the novels Mrs. Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927), and Orlando (1928), and the book-length essay A Room of One's Own (1929) with its famous dictum, "a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction."
