Born as a man, Orlando's life takes him through various roles and identities, including that of a woman, as he navigates encounters with notable figures from literature and history. This biography explores the intersection of art, identity, and history, teasing apart conventions and pretensions along the way. Through its exploration of the life and works of Vita Sackville-West, Knole, and other key figures, Orlando offers a unique perspective on the power of storytelling and the written word. First published in 2015, this new edition includes expert introductions, helpful notes, and original illustrations, making it an ideal choice for readers interested in literary biography and historical fiction.
