Description
Orlando is a fantasy biography that follows the life of a charismatic and enigmatic figure, whose gender shifts and identity blur the lines of time and convention. From a young nobleman to a woman writer in Virginia Woolf's own time, this playful and witty tale explores the complexities of identity and the fluidity of life.
Written in the style of a mock biography, Orlando is a wry commentary on the nature of gender and the human experience. With its capriciousness and ambiguity, this book is a 'writer's holiday' that invites readers to revel in its exuberance and wit.
Edited by Brenda Lyons with an Introduction and Notes by Sandra M. Gilbert, Orlando is a unique and captivating read that will appeal to those who enjoy literary fiction and experimental storytelling.
