Paula’s Notes & Highlights

Um Teto Todo Seu by Virginia Woolf

1 highlight

A literatura está aberta a todos. Me recuso a permitir que você, mesmo que seja um bedel, me expulse do gramado. Tranque as bibliotecas, se quiser: não há portão, fechadura ou cadeado que possa colocar na liberdade da minha mente”.

Uma ótima introdução à Virginia Woolf <3 Espero que as próximas leituras dela sejam tão fluídas quanto essa!
