Our April “Another Look” event was a record-breaker, with 880 people registering to attend our rich discussion of Virginia Woolf<\/strong>‘s 1929 A Room of One’s Own<\/em>. The “hybrid” event took place at 7 p.m. (PST) on Tuesday, April 11, in Levinthal Hall, Stanford Humanities Center, 424 Santa Teresa Street on the Stanford campus \u2013 and now you can attend it virtually, via podcast or video.

The video is up on Youtube here,<\/a><\/u><\/strong> and you can access the podcast on the Another Look website here<\/a><\/u><\/strong>. 

Another Look regular David Schwartz<\/strong> provided the photos for the event.

According to a contemporary review in The Los Angeles Times<\/em>: “If you miss this book, which is profound and subtle and gently ironic and beautifully written, you will have missed an important reading experience.” Another Look will consider the work’s legacy a century later. The Bloomsbury author’s iconic book, an extended essay, is in public domain and widely available,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
