Orlando Av Virginia Woolf

<p>''A fantasy, impossible but delicious ... an exuberance of life and wit'' <i>The Times Literary Supplement</i><br><br>First masculine, then feminine, Orlando begins life as a young sixteenth-century nobleman, then gallops through the centuries to end up as a woman writer in Virginia Woolf''s own time. Written for the charismatic, bisexual writer Vita Sackville-West, this playful mock biography of a chameleon-like historical figure is both a wry commentary on gender and, in Woolf''s own words, a ''writer''s holiday'' which delights in its ambiguity and capriciousness.<br><br>Edited by Brenda Lyons with an Introduction and Notes by Sandra M. Gilbert</p>
