  • One Line To Remember

    There was one memorable line from the book: "a man fears to educate a woman lest she laugh at him". That is so topical when the Taliban is banning women from college education; and Woolf's explanation for it rings true. The writing is labelled as a classic, but I am afraid to my dull mind that was not the case. I never established a connection with the character and was never interested as to what would happen to him/her. Perhaps the portrait of an entitled but worthless aristocrat was too accurate. The edition itself is well made.
