Synopsis "Un Cuarto Propio (in Spanish)"

Un cuarto propio es el lúcido testimonio crítico del rol de la mujer en la sociedad, y un verdadero clásico del siglo XX. 
“Cuando leemos sobre una bruja que fue sumergida en el agua, sobre una mujer poseída por los demonios, sobre una mujer sabia que vende hierbas, pienso que estamos sobre la pista de una novelista perdida, una poeta silenciada, una Jane Austen enmudecida y sin gloria, una Emily Brontë que desperdició su inteligencia en los páramos o marchaba desquiciada por los caminos, enloquecida por la tortura a la que la sometía su talento. Por cierto me aventuraría a decir que Anónimo, que escribió tantos poemas sin firmarlos, era muchas veces una mujer.”V. W.
 
En Un cuarto propio, Virginia Wolf imagina que Shakespeare tuvo una hermana. Una hermana igualmente talentosa, igualmente genial, pero cuyo legado es radicalmente diferente. Esta mujer imaginaria jamás escribe una palabra y termina por suicidarse, dejando su genio inexpresado. Si tan sólo hubiese encontrado los medios para crear, especula Virginia Wolf, hubiese alcanzado las mismas cimas que su inmortal hermano. En este ensayo ya clásico, Virginia Wolf la emprende contra el establishment, utilizando sus extraordinarias dotes como escritora para diseccionar el mundo que la rodea y para dar voz a aquellas que no la tienen.

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.
