Virginia Woolf's "novel-essay" was written in response to three enquiries she received: 1. How should war be prevented? 2. Why does the government not support education for women? And 3. Why are women not allowed to engage in professional work? Woolf being Woolf, the book as a whole may be read as a sequel of sorts to A Room of One's Own.
