A ROOM OF ONE'S OWN with Eileen Atkins. 

Just a staggering performance by one genius speaking the words of another genius.

This speech is not just for women. It's for everyone. Thank you!

Thank you for uploading this gem. I have long wanted to read 'A Room of One's Own' but been daunted by Virginia's stream of consciousness method of writing and the seduction of her word-music. Eileen Atkins has done a phenomenal job in delivering this essay. 50 minutes or passed like a whisper.

It is astounding to find something of this caliber on YT. Many thanks for posting this!

I remember watching this and crying in my room when it was first run on Masterpiece Theater. God bless you for posting it, I never thought I'd ever get to see it again!!!

Privacy, luxury and leisure are things that marginalised can't afford

That Charlotte may have been more gifted than Jane, but C. wrote about herself while J. remained pure ... that hit me like thunder.

She really is one of the greats. I always enjoy her roles.

I hope Wolfe's nod to the emergence of the bourgeois woman survives. Capitalism has made it more feasible for all to secure the $500. And the room.

Wow, this is a new venture into Wolfe. This narrator is absolutely mind blowing

Thank you so much. Love Virgínia Woolf, love Eileen Atkins. The two together - sublime.

Wonderful actress, pin points all characters "thrown" at her.... Splendid performances🤩🌱

Well said. And a guideline for all women who want to succeed in a man’s world, which still exist today.

It was superb performance! We all need to know history of women’s rights. I am so thankful for these amazing women in the history. Thank you for sharing.

Compelling... the male/female balance within the mind...great performance...thank you.

I would stay watching this for ages ..

Thank you for uploading; thank you Eileen Atkins; thank you Virginia Woolf. Brilliant.

Absolutely Brilliant. Thank you for posting. Eileen Atkins' amazing performance of Virginia Woolf's powerful words - truly inspiring.

Absolutely brilliant! I'm slayed. What a combination to see! Transferring the content of Virginia in a flawless performance such as this is mind blowing. Thank you

Wonderful performance. I tend to find Virginia Woolf difficult to read, but this I really enjoyed. Thank you.
