WOOLF, Virginia. A ROOM OF ONE'S OWN. New York/London: The Fountain 
Press/The Hogarth Press, 1929. First Edition. This edition preceded the 
English edition (both trade and signed) by three days. Original cinnamon 
cloth. One of only 492 copies SIGNED by the author (this copy marked 
"out of series" instead of numbered and belonged to the Yale University 
Press printer Carl Rollins) of this important and desirable title, a 
compelling essay on women and writing that has become a classic feminist 
text. Spine is mildly sunned; gilt strong. Near Fine.
"A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write 
fiction," said Woolf, "and that, as you will see, leaves the great 
problem of the true nature of woman and the true nature of fiction 
unsolved." (#014342)        $7,500
