This volume combines two books which were among the greatest contributions to feminist literature in the twentieth century. Together they form a brilliant attack on sexual inequality. A Room of Ones Own, first published in 1929, is a witty, urbane and persuasive argument against the intellectual subjection of women, particularly women writers. The sequel, Three Guineas, is a passionate polemic which dtaws a starding comparison between the tyrannous hypocrisy of the Victorian patriarchal system and the evils of fascism.
