"Three Pounds" presents a three-part answer to a question posed by a lawyer to Woolf: "How can a woman prevent war and protect intellectual freedom?" Despite all the despair that afflicts Wolf as she watches Europe on the cusp of another world war. She uses this imaginary message as a platform to defend the role of women in preventing war with her enthusiastic tone and convincing arguments. It affirms the right of women to establish their own institutions and determine their path. And it relentlessly exposes the racist capitalist patriarchal system in its era, as well as the relationship between the patriarchal system, patriotism, and the fascist regime, and is not limited to tracing the intertwined and complex relationship between war and the desire to seize power and wealth. Rather, she attributes all of this to the latent feeling of males to control the world by using intimidation and intimidation tools .
