A Room of One's Own

Penguin Classics

By: Virginia Woolf

Narrated by: Natalie Dormer

Brought to you by Penguin.

This Penguin Classic is performed by Natalie Dormer, best known for her standout role as Queen Margaery in Game of Thrones, as well as her roles in The Hunger Games and Captain America: The First Avenger.

A Room of One's Own, based on a lecture given at Girton College Cambridge, is one of the great feminist polemics. Woolf's blazing writing on female creativity, the role of the writer, and the silent fate of Shakespeare's imaginary sister remains a powerful reminder of a woman's need for financial independence and intellectual freedom.

Unexpectedly funny

Unexpectedly accessible, funny, and relevant today in 2021 - nearly 100 years after publication. It’s amazing how much has changed and how much is still the same.

Beautifully read as well.

Loved it..

Thank you, Natalie Dormer.
You were the perfect voice for such a great book, I could even imagine Virginia reading it herself..
Great performance and delivery of her sense of humor and her wiseness..

Your voice made my day!

I love Natalie Dormer’s voice which is mesmerizing—so rich, playful, and full of wit, just like her portrayal of Anne Boleyn in The Tudors.
