Synopsis "UN CUARTO PROPIO (VINTAGE) (in Spanish)"

Texto ilustre del feminismo del siglo XX, basado en dos conferencias impartidas por Virginia Woolf en la Universidad de Cambridge, Un cuarto propio indaga con singular ironía y talento narrativo en los graves efectos que tuvo la discriminación de género en la creatividad de las mujeres, al tiempo que propone un camino liberador a través de la independencia económica: para escribir novelas, una mujer debe tener dinero y un espacio propio.

Todo empezó por querer leer un buen libro… ¿Era mucho pedir? En 1935, de camino a Londres, Allen Lane se detuvo en un andén del ferrocarril para buscar algo interesante que leer durante el viaje. La oferta se limitaba a revistas populares y libros en tapa blanda de mala calidad. La desilusión y el posterior disgusto de Lane ante los títulos disponibles lo llevaron a inventar el libro de bolsillo, a fundar una empresa y a cambiar el mundo.

«Creíamos que existía un enorme público para los libros hechos con inteligencia a bajo precio, y lo apostamos todo por ello».
Sir Allen Lane, 1902-1970, fundador de Penguin Books

Los hábitos de lectura han cambiado desde 1935, pero en Penguin seguimos creyendo en publicar los mejores libros para el disfrute de todos, y en que los buenos libros publicados con pasión y responsabilidad mejoran el mundo.

Virginia Woolf was born in London on January 25, 1882, and died on March 28, 1941, drowned in the River Ouse. After her father's death, the well-known man of letters Sir Leslie Stephen, Virginia and her sister Vanessa left the elegant Kensington neighborhood and moved to the bohemian Bloomsbury, which named the brilliant literary group formed around the Stephen sisters. Among its members were T. S. Eliot, Bertrand Russell, Vita Sackville-West, and the writer Leonard Woolf, whom Virginia married and with whom she ran the prestigious Hogarth Press. From her early works, Virginia Woolf highlighted her intention to take novels beyond mere narration. In Mrs. Dalloway (1925) and To the Lighthouse (1927), the author expressed the inner feelings of the characters with her own techniques, achieving great psychological effects through images, metaphors, and symbols. Her technique was consolidated with Orlando (1931) and The Waves (1931), which secured her an indisputable place within the finest world literature. Additionally, Woolf wrote essays as famous as A Room of One's Own (1929), which still inspires new generations of women today, literary criticism articles like those compiled in The Common Reader (1925, 1932) and in Genius and Ink (2021), or the biography of the English poet Elizabeth Barrett's dog, Flush (1933). All these works are published by Lumen.
