"Virginia Woolf discusses women and fiction : A room of one's own, by Louis Kronenberger. The Manchester Guardian did not report Virginia Woolf's talks at Cambridge. This piece from the New York Times on November 10 1929, is a review of Woolf's essay, based on the talks" -- p. 17-18. "Versions of this speech were delivered by Virginia Woolf at Girton and Newnham colleges, University of Cambridge, on October 20 & 26 1928. However, because no copies of the speech were made, the text used here is taken from Woolf's 1929 essay A room of one's own (Penguin, 1929), which was based on the talks at Girton and Newnham colleges" -- t.p. verso.
