Public domain Ī Room of One's Own is in the public domain in many jurisdictions, including Australia and Canada. Abiding by the rule, the woman loses her idea. As the woman starts to think of an idea, metaphorically referred to as a fish, a beadle enforces a rule whereby only Fellows and Scholars, not her, are allowed to walk on the grass. She writes of a woman whose thought had "let its line down into the stream". In the book, Woolf’s metaphor of a fish as an idea illustrates her point "A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction". The book is based on two lectures Woolf delivered in October 1928 at Newnham College and Girton College, women's colleges at the University of Cambridge. Vanessa Bell was the designer of the cover of its first edition. A Room of One's Own is a book, first published in September 1929, consisting of an extended essay by Virginia Woolf.
