“Good Ol’ Women’s Rights” cartoon
We have all seen caricatures of Virginia Woolf. One appears on a coffee mug I use when I need a swig of inspiration. But there are also a number of Virginia Woolf cartoons out in cyberspace, and here are a few I found.
- “A Wolf Reading Virginia Woolf,” on cartoonstock.com
- “Virginia Woolf Double Vision by Lytton Strachey” by Guillermo Martin Bermejo. Click on the middle thumbnail to view the Woolf cartoon.

“Virginia Woolf And Feminism” cartoon
- A cartoon titled “Good Ol’ Women’s Rights” that is posted on The Life of Virginia Woolf page created by a student in a high school advanced placement English class. She says it “illustrates Virginia Woolf’s feelings on the typical Woman in society and her non-conformity. It is a play on her famous essay ‘The Angel in the House’.”
- “Virginia Woolf Meets ‘Car Talk,'” a New Yorker cartoon by William Hamilton
Here’s a quote about Bechdel’s book from Gloria Steinem:
Many of us are living out the unlived lives of our mothers. Alison Bechdel has written a graphic novel about this; sort of like a comic book by Virginia Woolf. You won’t believe it until you read it—and you must!
