A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf

A Room of One's Own
by Virginia Woolf

A Room of One's Own is an extended essay by Virginia Woolf. First published on 24 October 1929, the essay
was based on a series of lectures she delivered at Newnham College and Girton College, two women's colleges
 at Cambridge University in October 1928. While this extended essay in fact employs a fictional narrator
 and narrative to explore women both as writers of and characters in fiction, the manuscript for the delivery
of the series of lectures, titled "Women and Fiction", and hence the essay, are considered non-fiction.
The essay is generally seen as a feminist text, and is noted in its argument for both a literal and figural

why purchase an E-book?

• Travel. If you’re on the go a lot, you know how heavy regular titles are, particularly if you intend to finish one book while you are out and need to bring another book with you. E-books allow you to bring a whole library with you wherever you go. You can switch between titles with ease and the weight is lighter than a standard paperback.
• Storage. Those who own a lot of books know how much space they can take up, but with a reader or PC, your bookshelf is located on a small handheld device, your computer or on both. This will save you a lot of storage space and also means you have a backup if something happens to your books.
• Price. E-Books are often cheaper because there are no printing fees associated with them. In fact, you can find what you need right here on bargainbuyz™ for only R10, whereas paperback books almost always cost you a bit (not to mention the inconveniences that come with collecting them).
• Speed. When you buy an E-book, your reward is almost instantaneous. Whereas if you order a paperback book online you have to wait for it to arrive before the fun begins.
• Font adjustments. With an E-book, you can instantly change the size of your font. When your eyes feel strained after reading a paperback book too long, you have little choice but to stop reading. With an E-book, you can just change the font size and keep going. This is also a great feature for those who need large print books.
• Night reading. If you read in bed, an E-book may be a good option as it eliminates the need for an external light source. The brightness can also be adjusted to your requirements when reading an E-book.
• The environment. No trees are required to manufacture paper for the pages of E-books. 

E-books promote Reading - which increases Knowledge - which Empowers - which increases one's level of Confidence

A Great Investment - by any standard - this is a Must Have !!
