Reading the Room
Team Woolf
Hear Virginia Woolf's classic feminist text A Room of One's Own as never before: read aloud by 40 academics, students, alumni and leaders from the Australian National University community. Together, they engage with the question of how far we've come in achieving gender equality since the book was published almost 100 years ago.
