Sometimes, you said, you got a letter which you could not bring yourself to burn; once or twice a Guildswoman had at your suggestion written a few pages about her life . . . -Virginia Woolf to Margaret Llewelyn Davies, describing the circumstances leading to the publication of Life as We Have Known It A first-hand record of working class womens experiences in early twentieth-century England, Life as We Have Known It is a unique view of lives Virginia Woolf described as still half hidden in profound obscurity. The women write about growing up in poverty, going into domestic service, being a hat factory worker, or a miners wife concerned about the colliery baths, and how they became politically active through the Womens Co-operative Guild movement. Virginia Woolfs essay contains her candid and searching reflections on the Guilds 1913 Congress, the women who spoke there, and the differences between their lives and hers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51855861481760,"sku":"NEW0393007723","price":20.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71jyLbqvNwL.jpg?v=1781542745","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/life-as-we-have-known-it-0393007723","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
