About this listen

Presented here is Volume II of our Feminist Literary Classics series, featuring three more of the most important feminist novels ever written:

  • To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf.
  • Daughter of the Samurai by Etsu Inagaki Sugimoto.
  • My Brilliant Career by Miles Franklin.

The first audiobook in this collection is To the Lighthouse, Virginia Woolf's experimental and brilliant third novel. This semi-autobiographical audiobook was hailed in its time as a breakthrough work of genius by critics, and has been named by both Modern Library and Time Magazine as as one of the 100 best English language novels of the 20th century.

Next, we have A Daughter of the Samurai, the autobiographical first novel by Etsu Inagaki Sugimoto. It tells the incredible true story of a young girl born into a high-status family in Nagaoka, Japan, whose father, a samurai, is stripped of his power when the feudal system in Japan collapses, and his family is thrown into turmoil and uncertainty. We follow young Etsu as her arranged marriage transports her from rural Japan in the 1880s to the American midwest, and back.

And finally, we present My Brilliant Career, which catapulted young Miles Franklin into worldwide fame. The story centers on Sybylla Melvyn, a headstrong girl growing up in rural Australia, whose family is plunged into debt by their alcoholic father. Young Sybylla's story follows her romance with suitor Harold Beecham, her forced servitude to one of her father's creditors, and her attempts to become a famous writer. My Brilliant Career has long been hailed as one of the most popular and celebrated works in Australian literary history. Each of these audiobooks is presented in its original and unabridged format.
