I will here sum up my impressions before publishing a Room of
One’s Own. It is a little ominous that
Morgan wont review it. It makes me
suspect that there is a shrill feminine tone in it which my intimate friend
will dislike. I forecast, then, that I
shall get no criticism, except of the evasive jocular kind, from Lytton, Roger
& Morgan; that the press will be kind & talk of its charm, &
sprightliness; also I shall be attacked for a feminist & hinted at for a
sapphist; Sybil will ask me to luncheon; I shall get a good many letters from
young women. I am afraid it will not be
taken seriously. (D3 262)
