Virginia Woolf, a pivotal figure in the modernist movement, was deeply influenced by her own reading experiences and the societal constraints of her time. Growing up in a literary household and suffering personal tragedies, Woolf developed a profound appreciation for literature as both a mirror and a vessel for human experience. Her background fueled her desire to demystify literature and make it accessible, ultimately shaping her vision for "The Common Reader."
