If so, this should be the thread to post your questions or queries on the two books. :)


Personally I found Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf a lot better than A room of one's own.

Yes, I'm doing it! I found A Room Of One's Own quite a struggle to get through - Woolf, get to the point! I enjoyed reading the play though, and I wish that we could've studied it as a text for English Extension 1 - the 'After the Bomb' elective, specifically. It deserves to be studied as a Cold War allegory, but instead we're stuck exploring gender and illusion. Yay.

Yepp, I'm doing it too.
We're a pretty exclusive group - isn't it something like 9 schools doing it this year?
Cool..

There's only two classes in the hunter region doing it... haha

I actually find it really interesting but hard to get it all together with the module to write a good essay without making you sound like you are waffling.
