ABOUT THE WRITER

Adeline Virginia Stephen was an English writer and editor of the 19th and 20th centuries.

She became known with the publication of "Mrs. Dalloway" (1925), a novel, in which the writer criticizes the patriarchal relationship of English society at the time and the difficulty of women to conquer their space in the face of almost no access to education and oppression suffered by men.
