    I find this very hopeful and moving. I reminds me how far we have come from Shakespeare's time, to Virginia Woolf's time, to our own. And how far we have yet to go.

    Ugh, this was fantastic. As a writer and aspiring actress, myself, I was very impressed. She was so captivating the entire video. I've loved "A Room of One's Own" since I was assigned to read it in the beginning of my college journey. Virginia writes so eloquently; she's very clever. Fiona Shaw performed this piece so well... I forgot she was reciting Virginia.

    Astounding, heartfelt and moving. The words pour out of Fiona's mouth with such beauty that is only accompanied by strong and intense feeling. BRAVO 👏 and long live JUDITH SHAKESPEARE and the Rooms we inhabit.

    Beautifully done; thank you. I think every high school student of Shakespeare's plays should study A Room of One's Own with particular emphasis on this excerpt about the hypothetical Judith Shakespeare.

    The only thing is wrong about this video, is that is lacking likes. I can´t describe how touching and powerfull the speech AND Fiona Shaw were, nor how encouraging as a human, as a writer, as a human being this will make you feel.

    Incredible! So well spoken. So well said. A woman needs a room and money to write fiction! Was riveted.

    A perfect combination of writer, performer and film-maker.

    Thank you so much. For someone like me who cannot afford anymore to take english lessons, this is fantastic material to keep learning on my own.

    I bought this thinking it was a novella. Then I realized "this is a feminist non-fiction piece". When I finished reading it I realized, it's a poetic masterpiece of sad human facts.
