What is the title of the 1940 novel by Virginia Woolf?

  1. The Second Sex

  2. Between the Acts

  3. Mrs. Dalloway

  4. To the Lighthouse

The correct answer is: To the Lighthouse

"Virginia Woolf's novel, To the Lighthouse, was published in 1940. Therefore, while it is true that Virginia Woolf also wrote The Second Sex and Mrs. Dalloway, these were published in 1949 and 1925 respectively, making them incorrect choices for the title of her 1940 novel. Between the Acts was published in 1941, which also makes it an incorrect option."
