Rooms
A reconsideration of Virginia Woolf's groundbreaking A Room of One's Own through a very modern lens, revisiting Woolf's now archaic politics and mining the text for lessons on how to be a writer.
The central message of A Room of One's Own is that, to write, women must have money and a room of their own. The context of this has changed, so Queyras is asking what the contemporary version of that room is.

The book, inspired by Virginia Woolfβs work, weaves together memoir, poetry, and criticism to explore the vital spaces that shaped Queyras as a queer writer. It highlights the delicate balance between solitude and community necessary for creative expression, underscoring the material challenges writers face in their pursuit of artistic freedom.
